i dunno much bout the employment laws there, but i know the minimum wage in aus is bout aus$11 per hour, and students can only work bout 30 hours per week during semesters and as long as you want during holidays.

i've got one friend studying in UWA's dentistry, she works part time at a bakery earning aus$11.90 per hour. but i've also got a friend studying math in uni giving math tuition to asian kids there commanding aus$50 per hour.
