Travelling to and from Barker from Manly was tough, I did that for my years of 7,8,9, and 10…read more I then asked my parents if for years 11 and 12 I could go into boarding (my cousins and my older brother were all boarders and they loved it) so that I could use the extra time (what used to be travel time) to help me have the time to do: - Study - Musicals - Plays - Volleyball - Prefect Tasks - and of course Rest and Relaxation. Boarding provided me with the Time to do all if these things and all I needed was the motivation to do them. Now any meal away from home can't be nearly as enjoyable, however for the chefs to be cooking three meals a day (lunch provided for ALL BARKER STAFF) is very impressive and the quality of the food was perfectly acceptable. To be honest, if I had my time again to go through school - I wish I boarded in year 10 as well. I have formed long lasting friendships an I'm still in touch with guys that Havnt left yet, and the guys that were in my year. I'm proud to have been a Barker Boarder. here's a pic just for fun

Due to my parents living overseas at the time, I decided to enroll at Barker College as a boarder…read more While I LOVED the school itself, the boarding facilities and the way in which it was run was simply mind-boggling and dreadful. The house mistress and master have since been replaced, despite being one of the better things about the place. Barker College put more effort and money into their roses and gardens than they did the boarders. The food was worse than what you would feed to a pig (think diseased apples, salad crawling with bugs and grey meat). Once a term we would have an end of term dinner where the headmaster would attend. This was the only time the food was decent- perhaps because he wouldn't eat anything less. When the parents were invited to these end of term dinners, they were under the impression the food was excellent. Despite the girl's boarding school having had a renovation, the place has a dreadful reputation. 33 girls in one small house and "Mothers of the Day" (teacher supervisors who are on a power trip. I definitely recommend other boarding schools like PLC and Abbottsleigh. Barker College has no activities on the weekends apart from the once a term dinner. There are bars on the windows and there is little light- possibly the most depressing place to spend a few years!

Before I attended I thought the place was a church 'cause the building you see as you look down the street (Belmore Street?) looked like a church building. In the days before children were in danger, we used to walk miles to school. Through wind and hail and driving snowstorms we trecked, without shoes. It was tough back then, and kids nowadays don't know how good they have it. [OK it was about a mile and it doesn't rain much in Sydney except for sometimes in winter]. This institution has a lot to answer for ..... Just kidding!!! There were actually no problems or scandals or anything like that. Next door was the NSW Department of Education, so they probably made efforts to keep everyone in line and educate the kids like they are supposed to in the days before school administrators began believing it was all about them. The most shocking thing I remember is that one of my teachers grew up in the bush and confessed she had a pet kangaroo, and you are not supposed to do that. Shock, horror. I believe the trauma from it all is still with me to this day.

Campbell Page provides employment services primarily to those who require assistance in obtaining…read morejobs such as cleaning, store assistants and other titles. Typically, most customers have been signed up to Campbell Page because they are currently claiming the Job Seeker Allowance by Centrelink. It is a requirement that people who claim the money meet with a representative from Campbell Page. Having just finished university and having a comprehensive resume, my interview was relatively short because they deemed my skills as sufficient enough to not require any further meetings at the time. The whole process seemed to be a bit of a waste of time, what with the paper work and the interview process. However, it is a requirement and therefore necessary. I suppose the services at Campbell Page are more suited to those who wish to pursue a career which requires little tertiary education or a specific skillset.
