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.

💛 Celebrating Under 8's Week at Balaclava State School
Ms Juliet and her Certificate III in Early Childhood Education & Care students were honoured to be invited to celebrate Under 8s Week at Balaclava State School.
A big thank you to Miss Ish, the Prep teacher, for the warm welcome and for introducing us to Principal Miss Lisa. Our students spent meaningful time engaging with the little learners—especially in the Prep classroom, where we even recognised some familiar faces from Kindy last year!
The visit ended on a touching note as the Kindy children sang goodbye songs for us, leaving more than a few teary eyes among our students (and theirs too). 🥹🎶
Special thanks to Miss Trenae, Community Partnership Officer, for her ongoing support and for helping our students connect with real, rewarding experiences in the community.

🎶 Joyful Sounds from Prep – Year 2!
Our Prep to Year 2 students have been having a blast in music class — singing, moving, and making music together! 🥁🎤🎵
It’s all smiles, rhythm, and fun as they explore the magic of music and express themselves through sound.
