As Day Waterman College is offering a broad, rigorous program, we are looking for evidence of a young person's preparation to succeed at DWC. We look at the whole child, paying particular attention to:
  • A passion for learning
  • Intellect, evidenced by a history of academic success
  • Ability to fit into a boarding environment
  • Sociable and Respectful
  • Well disciplined
  • Sporting ability
  • Ability in creative arts

  • For September 2008 there are places for 100 year 7 students and 100 Year 8 students. All students board at the school

    Admission to DWC is highly selective and the applicant pool quite is already competitive.
