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.

After all the rain, it was smiles all around when the sun finally came out ☀️

Our boarding students made the most of the weekend with an excursion to Palm Cove — enjoying a walk along the shore, fresh air, and some well-earned sunshine with friends 🌊

Our Senior Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care students had a fantastic time working with our Lower Primary students to create a Harmony Day poster 🧡

It was a wonderful opportunity for our senior students to share what Harmony Day is all about—celebrating inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone.

NRL Footy Training Gaining Momentum
NRL footy training is held every Tuesday afternoon for our Secondary students, and it’s already proving to be a hit! 🏉 With the largest number of students attending so far, it’s clear the game is growing at Djarragun. Great to see so many students getting involved, building skills, teamwork and confidence on the field.
