Process to change sporting house names is outlined
Woy Woy Public School has outlined the process it will use to change the names of its sporting houses.
Principals Ms Ona Buckley and Mr Dan Betts said that when parents were surveyed last year they supported a change.
"After a strong response to the initial survey, it was clear that the school community was onboard.
"We are proposing that the sporting house names be changed to represent flora or fauna of the local environment.
"After considering community responses to this survey, we will seek student and staff input.
"Members of the Reconciliation Action Plan Committee as well as members of the executive team will create a short-list, based on the popularity of responses.
"Ultimately, a final survey will be pushed out to make a conclusive decision.
"As always, your input into these decisions is greatly appreciated," the principals said in a letter to parents.
Responses should be submitted before Friday, May 5.
