A New Home, A New Beginning β Celebrating the Opening of Wanggulay
A landmark moment in Djarragun College’s history.
We were honoured to officially open Wanggulay, our purpose-built boys’ boarding precinct, alongside our students, families, Elders, Board members, community partners and distinguished guests.
More than just a boarding house, Wanggulay is a culturally responsive home away from home where young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men are supported to grow as learners, leaders and future role models for their communities.
Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate this significant milestone. Watch the highlights from this special day.

π¨βπ³π₯ Cooking Up Skills for the Future!
Well done to our budding young chefs in the Year 9/10 Certificate II in Hospitality class, who have been busy perfecting their flatbread-making skills! π
Under the guidance of Mr Lachlan and Mr Franco, students have been preparing for an upcoming Souvlaki CafΓ© at the College, putting their culinary skills to the test!
As part of their VET studies, students are gaining valuable real-world experience, learning that hospitality is about more than just cooking. From food preparation and presentation to customer service and serving, these practical experiences help build confidence and develop important workplace skills.
Great work, everyone! We can't wait to see your Souvlaki CafΓ© come to life! π―β¨
