Congratulations to the St Ursula’s College Kingsgrove Class of 2023 on your outstanding Higher School Certificate (HSC) results!
Our school climbed an astonishing 18 positions in The Sydney Morning Herald rankings, placing 76th in the state.
We recorded a phenomenal 189 Distinguished Achievers, five All Rounders and a Band 6 rate of 19.7 per cent.
St Ursula’s College Kingsgrove Principal Mary Leask congratulated Year 12 on a fantastic effort.
“When I saw the results I was very proud of the students, and of their teachers as well. Teachers have worked with these girls since Kindergarten to get them where they are – we’re just seeing the icing on the cake that has been baking for 13 years.
“The students wanted to do well individually but they knew that by doing so, they’d all do well. That collaborative competition worked very well for them. We had some particularly strong results in Chemistry. It’s good to see girls get Band 6 results, particularly in physics and chemistry which are more difficult to get,” Mrs Leask said.
SUCCESS ACROSS THE SYSTEM
