It's best to check with your teacher since they will be able to see it in person and see what modifications you have made to it.
The following is the VCAA specifications (some of it is quite ambiguous tbh)

Specifications for bound reference

The bound reference must be in book format of A4 size or smaller when closed.
The number of pages is not specified.
Pages must be permanently bound and securely attached to the spine.
There must be a single horizontal or vertical spine.
The bound reference may be:
a textbook
a securely bound lecture pad
a permanently bound student-constructed set of notes without fold-outs
an exercise book.
The form of binding is not specified but it must be secure, and pages must not be readily detachable or designed to be removed. Binding can include cloth, glue, staple, spiral or comb binding.
Students are allowed to:

annotate the material
design their own written index
fold pages
cut page corners
colour code pages
insert dividers into their own sets of notes
firmly attach (for example, by glue, adhesive tape or staples) additional material to pages in the bound reference.
Bound references may be consulted during reading time and throughout the examination.

Bound references must not include:

pages or parts of pages that can be detached from the bound reference during the examination
fold-outs, maps or brochure-style components
removable tabs, post-it notes or other pages or material designed to be detached
forms of collation/binding that are designed to be non-permanent and the content modified by insertion including:
ring-binder folders
plastic A4 sleeves (permanent or removable) from which pages may be removed
manila and similar folders with clip, clamp, slide and metal prong binding of loose-leaf material.
If any page or part of a page is detached from the rest of the bound reference, the page will be removed by the supervisor for the duration of the examination and the incident will be reported as a potential breach of rules.

Bound references must not be shared between students during an examination.

Does that mean you could have a paper square  staple on top of a paper in the book? (So, basically you could flip it)

No. It specifies that they need to be securely attached to the spine.

I'm not too sure but my school doesn't allow any spiral books to be use as reference books, in particular the one's with the perforated edges (I'm pretty sure they're a no go)
