Academic success at Woy Woy South

Students from Woy Woy South Public School have achieved significant academic successes recently.

Principal Ms Kim Whealey has congratulated three Year 6 students who were successful in their applications to attend Gosford Selective High School in 2017.

"The students have achieved outstanding results during their Woy Woy South schooling and this is a major accomplishment for them," Ms Whealey said.

"At the same time, some of our high academic achievers in Year 6 have also indicated their preference to remain with Brisbane Water Secondary College, demonstrating their confidence in the programs on offer there," she said.

Seventeen Woy Woy South Public School students have also received offers for the academic selective class at Brisbane Water Secondary College's Umina campus for 2017 Year 7.

In term 2, 16 students participated in the UNSW Science competition.

"This is a very difficult test that pits the students against the very best primary school science minds in the state," Ms Whealey said.

"We were delighted to be notified that eight of our students received a commendation certificate," she said.

One Year 3 student received a High Distinction placing her in the top one per cent of students in the state in her year.

"These results demonstrate the great attitude that so many of our students have towards science and technology," she said.
