Righto, that's one states school year, (sounds like one of the HSC* users.)
however, February to the first week of December is the typical 7-10 Victorian secondary school year, Year 11 early-mid November before unit 2 VCE** exams, Year 12 October/November before unit 4 VCE exams.

*Higher Schooling certificate. (I think that's right.)
**Victorian Certificate of Education.

Well, that's what it was when I went through it a few years back.
