Indigenous Education Program
Our Indigenous Education Program encompasses our passion for both education and for the empowerment of indigenous children so that they can become active citizens at the forefront of our ever-changing world.
We are committed to supporting our indigenous students through their educational journey at JPC and have a full-time Indigenous Support Co-ordinator who works alongside students, families and community to ensure student wellbeing and success at school.
The opportunities and continuous support provide students with the confidence to succeed and the ability to maintain their connections to family, land, heritage and culture.
It is our aim that they share knowledge gained with their own people whilst raising cultural awareness among the non-indigenous members of our community.
Throughout our campus, we have created authentic spaces and symbols which represent the indigenous culture. These include a yarning circle, a bush tucker grove and indigenous gardens.
