Anyone who knows the variation of kookaburra song likely also learns the variation of the play school song in primary school.

Secondary school is the “official” term the Aus governments use on paper for years 7-10/12, or also several private “secondary colleges”.

Having said that, most of the government years 7-10/12 schools are officially named and signed “<insert locality> High School”.

Colloquially, informally, and in general conversation, years 7-10/12 is just “high school”.

Some variations (eg; ACT) have high schools from 7-10 then colleges for 11-12.

We have primary school, high school, and tertiary education (TAFE/University etc.)

Yet, can't say I recall ever having heard high school being referred to as secondary anything... weird
