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.



Our boarding students are supported to get involved in local sports clubs — with fees and transport organised through the school so they can focus on giving it their best 💪🏉
Here they are, all suited up and ready for the new season after joining the Lions AFL Club — and already straight into the action! We’re incredibly proud of this group for their commitment, teamwork and willingness to step up, try something new and represent with pride. Go well, legends! 🦁👏✨ ... See MoreSee Less

Sorry to some of our Yarrabah families today. The Djarragun College bus reached capacity.
Starting tomorrow, Wednesday 11 February, we have added a second bus to this run. Mr Fred, one of our CARE Educators, will be driving one of the buses and Ken from Kinnect will continue to drive the other.
The pick up times will stay the same, but it may be a different bus.
We are pleased to see so many of the students at school and attending classes learning.

What an unforgettable night for our Class of 2025 Year 12 students.
Families, friends and staff recently came together to celebrate our graduates as they arrived in style for the Djarragun College Formal.
The evening was filled with pride, culture and joy, marking a significant milestone in each student’s journey — a reminder of just how far they have come and all they have achieved. From the red carpet arrivals to the celebrations on the dancefloor, the night reflected the strength, connection and support that define our College community.
As our current Year 12 students look ahead to the end of their own schooling journey, this is a moment to remember what awaits — the pride, the sense of accomplishment, and the celebration of years of hard work. Stay focused, keep striving, and make 2026 a year to be proud of. ... See MoreSee Less
