[edit] Architecture

The following quote appears incorrect: "The school's Buildings were constructed according to the hilly terrain of the area, so that there are no more than two levels at any single point." Unless things have substantially changed since I attended in 1994 I believe the maximum number of floors at any one point was 3 (from the 4th to the 2nd at the corner of the steps between levels 2 and 3.

It would also be good to add a section about the construction of the sports hall/theatre sometime around 1990 as it significantly added to the ability of the school to perform annual dramas with performances spanning about a week each (e.g. Barnum, Pirates of Penzance, Superman).

[edit] Updates

Hello guys; just a quick thought for anyone who wishes to do it; this page should be linked from an appropriate section on the Pennant Hills page. Secondly, in the first paragraph, "It recently celebrated its 40th anniversary." could be updated so that the statement doesn't age -- in a few years, it'll be obviously dated. Something better might be "The school celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2006".. Skittled 05:46, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bizzaro listing!

I just removed this bit, none of which I can confirm:

There is an under-earth tunnel cavern situated underneath the Alfred Gray Memorial Library (accessible via. the cageing from the side-road) where a secret society of students congregate. The tunnel once had electricity, food supplies, arsenal of weapons, spare clothing, furniture and mining equipment.

And this, which seems to me to be pretty biased:

Many parents express concerns of their children's safety at Pennant Hills High School, and opt for a higher standard of secondary education for their children by enrolling them at nearby schools such as Barker College, Normanhurst Boys High, Hornsby Girls High, Cherrybrook Technology High, Loreto and Abbotsleigh College

You're a mole!
