Pretty much all schools in Australia have a school uniform. Some of them are really stupid (for instance there was a girls catholic school near us that had ankle length kilts) but overall it all tends to be pretty sensible. Also doesnt get that cold here...

I dunno. I think it was a good thing. I liked not having to think about what I was going to wear. It was really weird going to uni and suddenly having to wear something different every day.
school uniforms were a pain in the arse at the time (DETENTION IF YOU DIDNT WEAR YOUR BLAZER! OMG) but I think it made things a hell of a lot more equal between people and you could actually spend your time getting to know people based on the conversations you had with them, rather than what kind of shoes they were wearing.
