My parents live just out of the Gold Coast at Runaway Bay & they just hate Schoolies. They shop in advance & batten down the hatches for the duration. So, they would say send your kids to Bali for Schoolies.
My sis's daughter did a cruise instead of either the G C (who wants to spend Schoolies with the Grandies?) or Bali & loved it - the security was great esp after the trouble several years ago. Just another option.
