University of Wollongong Science Fair

science fair team

On Wednesday representatives from Stage 2 and Stage 3 competed in the Annual Science Fair and achieved outstanding results.

12 students from Wollongong Public School competed in Australia’s largest science fair. The dull weather outside didn’t have an impact on the students’ mood as they competed at a high level with hopeful and motivated spirits.

The University of Wollongong Illawarra Coal Science Fair was held on the 28th of November to celebrate the love of science which was common and resonating throughout the sports hub on the day. 950 contestants were expected to attend the event, all hoping to impress judges with their knowledge of their subject, which covered all areas of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics). Roughly 80 schools were present, being judged on their overall results.

Wollongong Public School was proud to receive a prestigious Leadership Award, which symbolised the students’ consistency in achieving high results. Along with our group’s overall achievement, Ronan received a 2nd place out of all the contestants in Stage 2 and Shiv received a 3rd place out of all the contestants in Stage 3. All students were proud of representing our school in such a great manner.
