The School

Wangkatjungka Remote Community School (RCS) was opened in 1962 as Christmas Creek School. Parts of the original school still remain and are highly valued by the school and the community. In 1990, the name of the school changed to Wangkatjungka RCS. Our communities play an active part in school life at Wangkatjungka RCS, ensuring the students are provided with the best, most culturally sensitive learning environment.

Wangkatjungka RCS is located in a remote Aboriginal community in the Kimberley region, approximately 110 km from the nearest town centre, Fitzroy Crossing, including travel 20 km of unsealed road. Three stations; Beefwood Park Station, Bulka Station and Christmas Creek Station surround the Wangkatjungka Community.
