Heartbreak High is an Australian television program created by Michael Jenkins and Ben Gannon that ran for six years, through seven seasons from 1994 to 1999 on both Network Ten and ABC. The program dealt with the students of the fictional Hartley High, a tough high school in a multiracial area of Sydney, and has been described as a more gritty and fast-paced show than many of its contemporaries. The show is a spin-off of the 1993 Australian feature film The Heartbreak Kid, which features cast members Alex Dimitriades, Nico Lathouris, Doris Younane, Scott Major and Katherine Halliday as early versions of their Heartbreak High characters. Later seasons of the show shifted emphasis from the Poulos family and the school setting, with a group of students living independently in a warehouse while working at The Shark Pool, a local hangout. The first five series were filmed in Maroubra Bay High School in Maroubra, New South Wales in the Eastern Suburbs.
