Welcome to Djarragun College
Djarragun College shares the Cape York Partnership vision for children to achieve their full potential, talent and creativity and have the confidence and capacity for hard work so they can orbit between two worlds and enjoy the best of both.
We aim to develop a holistic knowledge about each of our student’s academic ability and physical health and wellbeing to be able to fully support each of them onto a successful future life pathway.
We recognise the traditional owners of Cape York and the Torres Strait Islands and pay our respects to our elders, past and present.
Our Mission
To develop proud, strong, educated Indigenous men and women, who walk confidently in two worlds, to be leaders, and to be role models for their families and communities.
Our Vision
To be the school of choice for students, parents and communities in Cape York and the Torres Strait Islands.
Loving the sportsmanship and support our students show for each other and their teammates 👏
As part of our Boarding curriculum, students have the opportunity to join local clubs and get involved in the community. This term, many of our boarders have joined the Lions AFL club, where they are supported to attend weekday training sessions and weekend matches.
It’s great to see them building skills, confidence, and strong team connections both on and off the field 🏉 ... See MoreSee Less

Full Program Drop – Cairns Children’s Festival 2026 is rolling in, and it’s bigger, brighter, and more bonkers than ever!
For all the tiny trailblazers aged 12 and under, this is the event where imaginations run wild, creativity bursts at the seams, and every kid is a superstar!
Save the dates: Saturday 16 May and Sunday 17 May 2026 – when Cairns Performing Arts Centre, City Library, Tanks Arts Centre, and Cairns Botanic Gardens will magically transform into the ultimate playground of giggles, adventure, and surprising snack-related negotiations.

Our Certificate II and III in Hospitality students are loving the upgrades to our purpose-built classroom 👩🍳
Over the Easter holidays, the space was transformed with a brand new long workbench, complete with a demonstration hob for the teacher and hotplates for group work—allowing students to cook alongside in real time. With large digital screens displaying recipes and instructions, it’s all about hands-on learning, collaboration, and building real-world skills through Vocational Education and Training (VET). Fantastic to see! 👏 ... See MoreSee Less
