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.

Homework is an important part of boarding life 📚
Each evening, our students are supported to complete their schoolwork in a way that suits them best. With a variety of spaces to choose from, some prefer working indoors, others enjoy the fresh air outside, some collaborate in groups, while others focus independently at their desks.
It’s all about creating the right environment for every student to succeed. ... See MoreSee Less
