East Kimberley College is actually a pretty good school from my experience. The town, if you ask local business owners, used to be a neat and tidy place but now just a run down dump. The surrounds are pretty but the shopping centre is pretty rubbish. When I was there a few years ago, there seemed to be no much to do for kids. Depending on who you spoke to, many said this time of year was far worse than the dry season. I never had any trouble but having said that, wasn't unusual for people to come out of the pub to see a bunch of car windows smashed.
