The convicts did more work (for extra money if they were first class convicts), they hung out in their cells, got some more rest and much other stuff
Convicts typically live in correctional facilities, such as prisons or jails, where they serve their sentences. These facilities are designed to house individuals who have been convicted of crimes and often include various security levels, from minimum to maximum security. In some cases, convicts may also participate in rehabilitation programs or be placed under supervised parole in the community after serving part of their sentence.
Convicts sentenced to serve out their term in a penal colony
The escaped convicts were captured.
Australia was originally a penal colony. This means that British convicts were shipped off to Australia to serve their sentences.
Port Jackson served as a penal colony from its establishment in 1788 until the cessation of transportation of convicts in 1840. Initially, it was the site of the first British settlement in Australia, with convicts arriving to serve their sentences. Although the transportation of convicts officially ended in 1840, the area continued to develop and evolve into a free settlement thereafter.
This usually means that the convicted individual is released from jail on probation. If he/she gets into trouble again, they have to serve the suspended jail/prison time.
If there were any chimney sweeps among the convicts of the First Fleet, the length of their sentence was determined by their crimes and the whim of the magistrates who convicted them, not by their job.

convicts- they spend 25 years on a single sentence
Using serve in a sentence is really easy. I am ging to serve in the army for another year ...
This is a sentence. A prisoner has to serve the sentence the judge gives him.
Like this: " I will serve you milk, with dinner". or " Will you serve in the military?"
As a general rule, federal convicts must serve 85% of their sentence before being eligible for parole or release. I disagree with the foregoing answer. The United States Bureau of Prisons provides 53 days per year of "good time" and there is no other sentence reduction available for most inmates. Federal prisoners must serve nearly 7 years to obtain a one-year reduction. There is no federal parole; there is only Supervised Release following completion of sentence.
