I've read a lot about how it came to be that students in the northern hemisphere get a break from school during the summer butI've always wondered about european-influenced societies in the southern hemisphere.Frankly, I don't even know what sort schedule schools follow 'down under'.Would anyone care to elaborate?I can remember, as a child, thinking that it would be a little weird to experience a 'hot' Xmas & 'cold' Independence (USA) Day!----- The Traveller Mailing List Archives at http://archives.simplelists.com/tml Report problems to xxxxxx@simplelists.com To unsubscribe from this list please go to http://www.simplelists.com/confirm.php?u=0og3DHdoRHgL9lI7peOXYWnk6UF4c1zE
