Djarindjin-Lombadina Catholic School, Djarindjin-LombadinaDjarindjin-Lombadina Catholic School provides classes for approximately 70 Aboriginal students from Pre-primary to Year 10. The Djarindjin and Lombadina communities are located 200 kilometres north of Broome and are accessible by unsealed road. A major feature of this location is its idyllic coastal environment with lovely beaches and magically tropical sunsets. Djarindjin-Lombadina Catholic School serves both the Djarindjin
and Lombadina communities. Lombadina has a long Catholic tradition
being established as a mission in the early 1900's. Although it
was the St John of God Sisters who founded the school in 1913,
there have been a number of religious orders associated with the
school over the years; the school is now staffed by a lay principal
and teachers. Local Aboriginal Teaching Assistants provide invaluable
support within the school and are a strong link to the communities. |
