Doomadgee State School is located within Far North West Queensland, a short one hour’s air travel from Mount Isa and is nestled in the pristine wilderness of native title land. The school provides the essential service of Education to the 1200 strong community, predominantly made up of Gangalidda, Garrawa and Waanyi first peoples of Australia.
The school has a long tradition of positive outcomes since its establishment in the early 1970’s, and is establishing itself with the Doomadgee as a place of supported teaching and learning within our community’s cultural context. As a school we consider it an honour and a privilege to serve our community and provide a curriculum tailored to the individual that allows all students to reach their own individual potential.
We have a strong School Improvement Agenda and our three priorities for 2018 are:
- Attendance
- Changing School Culture - The Doomadgee Way and Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL)
- Reading
