Nobody got pissed in the common room, they didn't even get that far. They decided to suspend the whole of S6 before most of them even got to school. Teachers were going up to S6's in the coridoor and screaming at them to get out without giving them an explanation. They made lots of girls cry and ruined a bit of fun. The janitors (who had to clean up the turf) thought it was funny and so did most of the teachers. The cost of damages went up and down over the day ranging from £80-£1000, they could'nt make their minds up. The tiles weren't used as a rug, they were made into a very nice patio area and weren't damaged but put back into the roof.Considering they only cost £2.50 to buy and only 12 were taken down I'm not sure where they managed to get £1000 worth of damage from.

"haha. yeah the boy who got arrested pissed in the common room apparently."

The boy who got arrested did nothing but say "ok" sarcastically when a policeman said "do you want me to arrest you". He was 17 and they put cuffs on him without him putting up any kind of fight. My sister filmed the whole thing and took heaps of pictures as well. Senior Management got to the point of taking peoples cameras off them and wiping their memory cards which I'm pretty sure is illegal.

Hope thats cleared up any rumours and thank you to banchory academy who've given us the rope to hang them with.
That actually sounds like the way the police behave nowadays. Targets and all that jazz.

Hilarious prank, how did you manage to carry it all? Although who the hell decides to drink champagne at half 7 in the morning or whatever?

Fucking right man, the last day of school or "muck up day" is meant to be sheer carnage.

Schools should put up with it.

That's quite a good price!

Got the URL for it? - I need to redo my front lawn. Maybe pay the students to returf it for me - give them a taste for the McJobs they'll be doing from now on in

as an s6 at banchory academy i can say for definite that no one got arrested for taking a piss!
the turf did cost about £150 from ebay- each s6 pad £1.50 for it so wasnt too expensive between us!

I didn't finish 6th year so I have no idea what happened on the last day of my school. Though since I went to Fraserburgh Academy, it probably involved heroin and/or fish.

Edit* I just realised that was 12 years ago, which makes me now feel very very old.

Haha, I heard this on Radio 1 at tea time last night. I was convinced she was gonna say 'St Machar Academy' when she mentioned Aberdeen.

Our year got sent home on our last day too but I was geeking up on Geography and kept out of it.

At least nobody's dignity was shattered like on my last day of school. Chuckle.
