For years, Martina Martinez has been so proud of her son’s extra curricular activities, boasting to the rest of the office about his Spanish lessons and self-sustaining veggie garden. So with ATAR results for Year 12 students released this week, the office was anticipating a flurry of chatter around Hugo’s prospects as a future surgeon, lawyer or scientist. Instead, silence…
While some parents within the office were delighted to report that their child passed with a score good enough to get into University, Martinez avoided all conversations around the topic and has continued all week.
“It’s so strange for her to be so quiet,” said co-worker Dee Lighted
“Every week she sends around photos of Hugo and reminds everyone how proud she is of him. We just assumed it was going to be some sort of Festival of Hugo for the week.”
With a quick browse of social media, it turned out that Hugo had failed to obtain a score that would get him into University having spent most of the year on Columbian chat rooms learning how to grow his own cannabis.
Martinez could not be reached for comment.
