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.

Movie Day @ Stratford Library, 23 Jan all day: Kids will love seeing a group of “not-so-good” heroes as they try to pull off daring heists and save the day in this hilarious sequel. Popcorn and good vibes are included.

All events are FREE and do not require bookings.

Enter Competitions: Borrow any item from the Junior or Youth collection to go into the draw to win 1 of 14 gift-cards, and enter our Scavenger Hunts at City Library to win gift cards and books by local authors Rebecca Ralfe and Lachlann Carter.

Get crafty and make animal masks, create never-before-seen animals and add your favourite animal to the community habitat. You can try out our 3D pens and create Lego or Augmented Reality creatures.

Over the last couple of weeks, our boys and girls have hit the court for a few nights of basketball at the Canendo Cup — and what an effort they put in! 🏀✨
The raw talent among our students is incredible. Although the other teams proved too strong and we narrowly missed a spot in the Grand Final, the determination, sportsmanship, and impressive number of three-pointers made us all so proud.

Our young men and women showed true character when faced with adversity and deserve to be commended for their efforts.

A special shout-out to Kassarn, who was voted Players’ Player for the attention he received on the court. He showed not only outstanding basketball skills but also great maturity, even when being guarded by up to four players at times.

Well done to all involved! 👏🏽🏀
