Who We Are
At Spinifex, we are three campuses - one college: Junior, Senior, and Boarding. While each campus has its own identity, we are united by shared values, high expectations, and a collective commitment to student success.
We are also four houses - one family: Moondarra, Julius, Leichhardt, and Rifle — fostering belonging, pride, and teamwork across our college.
Our vision is to develop clever, skilled, and creative Spinifex graduates. We are equally committed to ensuring that our students develop a strong sense of identity, belonging, and cultural understanding.
We value and celebrate the rich cultural diversity of our community, particularly the knowledge, stories, and perspectives of our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and families.
