New principal for Woy Woy

Ona Buckley has been appointed principal of Woy Woy Public School.

Ms Buckley will officially take up her duties this term.

The school's publicity officer Ms Gayle Downey said: "After an extended period of being without a permanent principal, the appointment of Ms Buckley is a welcome relief for both teaching staff and the children and families of Woy Woy Public School.

"All look forward to Ms Buckley joining our school from Cootamundra Public School in the NSW Riverina," Ms Downey said.

"A meet and greet morning tea held in the school hall on Friday, April 7, initially was to be a welcome to new and returning families to our school, but this was happily extended to include a warm welcome to Ms Buckley.

"The morning tea was organised by teachers Ms Westacott, Mrs Taylor, Mrs McGinley and Mrs Tatham and was excellently hosted by our current school leaders."
