We just got our common room today and it was a bit of a mess. Theres not much in it, theres a ps1 but i think old 6th years might take that back, there is also a cd player, but thats pretty much it.
Whats your common room like?

We don't get a common room. Too many people stay on from 5th year since only a few leave. We used to have one but it was a bit small. We wouldn't all fit in.

Our common room (Well its not much of a room, more a space set aside in the middle of the corridor) is in a state from the old 6th years and is supposed to be ripped out soon for a new office.

common room or not, ull know the ppl who use the common room and the people who use the library once u get half way through 6th year!.. its noticable in everything, hanging out in groups to assemblies(left and right side of the room) so take the common room and get familiar with it as soon as possible and make sure, chavs and neds dont end up taking over it!

Oh, the 6th year common room in my school rawks like totally. It's even got cushions - oOooo..
Shame about the heating system though.
Some random people have plastered the walls and ceiling with movie posters and err... images with texts of a certain nature
There's so many 6th years this year - 102 to be precise which is like double the amount last year...
We've a few people to sweep the common room as one of their school services so it would always stay forever trim and neat.
Why they want to do such a bland and dull job is just totally beyond me.

Our common room is pretty nice - a lot nicer that i thought it would be. Its quite big, and has cool windows in the ceiling (i only just noticed them today) Has just been painted in a light mint green colour, light yellow, light pink and light blue. There are posters up on the wall - there is a "girls wall" and a "boys wall" ...which i think is quite funny cos I sit right under the boys wall.
Today we got a playstation, kettle, cd player and tv as a present from the old 6th yr and the headteacher (that was pretty good of them!!). I think couches are being ordered from Ikea cos at the moment there is only one comfy chair and about 30 old plastic normal school chairs. There is a few tables around the place and some lockers.
So overall, I'm pretty pleased with our common room!
No-one tidies our common room - but they shouldn't have to anyway i don't think - its all part of the whole responsibility thing to keep it tidy.
My sister told me that in her old common room (the school was rennovated), someone somehow made a huge hole in the wall and covered it up with a Bob Marley poster.

No common room at my school as last year it got trashed!
Same, but we've won it back after getting a petition!
Not till after the summer mind.

The new 6th years at my school aren't allowed in the common room until after the holidays - apparently still due to the water fight everyone was going to have on the last day - when she banished us from the common room, and the entire school if we were going to have a carry on

well, our common room was going to have been taken of us because some folk in my year let a chicken loose in the swimming pool.
it was hilarious
