About this school, from public sources

Public information about this school is limited, but available sources describe Wangkatjungka Remote Community School as a small government school serving the Wangkatjungka Aboriginal community in the Kimberley region, near Fitzroy Crossing. It has operated since 1962 (originally as Christmas Creek School) and works closely with the local community, including Aboriginal teaching staff. Enrolment is small, giving students a low student-to-teacher ratio typical of remote community schools.
