Gold medals in drama competition

Students from Woy Woy Public School won six gold medals in six categories at a recent national dance and drama competition.

Parents and staff accompanied 31 students to Castle Hill for their first performance in "Wakakirri".

Their performance "The Homecoming" was about a village whose precious talisman is stolen by a group of no good raiders.

A quest begins to find and recover the talisman, which after a fierce battle is returned to the village.

Principal Mr Warwick Hannon said the team behaved excellently and showed the quality of the school.

He also praised the teamwork of the staff and students.

The children spent mornings, every lunchtime and Sundays rehearsing.

They must now wait until September to see if they have reached the finals, which are to be held at the Sydney Entertainment centre.
