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 studentβs 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.

π§ͺπΏ Hands-on science in action! πΏπ§ͺ
To finish off the term, our Middle School students took part in a practical science lesson exploring natural indicators and pigments.
Students investigated and extracted a range of vibrant colours from flowers, blackberries, and red cabbage, observing how natural materials can reveal surprising and beautiful results in the lab.
A fantastic way to end the term with curiosity, experimentation, and discovery! ππ¬
