About this school, from public sources

Public sources describe Cunnamulla P-12 State School as a small rural Prep-to-Year-12 campus on Kunja country beside the Warrego River in south-west Queensland, founded in 1877. The school serves a majority First Nations student community, drawing on Kunja, Budjiti, Kooma and other local language groups, and has invested in vocational facilities including an Industrial Technology Resource Centre officially opened with state government recognition. As a combined P-12 school it functions as a central hub for education across the remote township.
