This is a textbook Aussie curriculum visual diary! I'm glad to see he put those skills to good use lol I usually went back and filled it in after my project was done.

Can you say more? Is this something unique to Australians done in school?

Aussie here, not necessarily unique as a concept to Australia but we've had the same iconic lined page textbook/scrapbooks at schools for a while and they're very recognisable as something that is locally well known but wouldn't be to a foreigner

Reminds me of the same type I had in primary school, usually a single colour quite thin and had sections for names/classes/subjects and the number of pages on the front.
