*Spinifex State College aims to develop clever, skilled and creative learners. To achieve this aim, we provide students with access to quality curriculum programs and learning opportunities. We also inspire our students to explore their passions, harness their unique talents and fulfil their potential.

Our solid links with Mount Isa Mines and other businesses have led to many authentic learning opportunities to prepare students for their chosen post-school pathways. This includes school-based apprenticeships/traineeships and work experience. Spinifex students are encouraged to work hard and achieve their best - our school is proud of our students and their achievements.
