Worawa Aboriginal College is Victoria’s only registered Aboriginal School. An Aboriginal Community initiative, the College is governed by an Aboriginal Board and management. Worawa was established in 1983 in response to the difficulties Aboriginal students faced in the mainstream educational system. It provides a quality education for students in the secondary years of schooling, Years 7 – 12, for up to 70 Aboriginal girls from urban, regional and remote communities across Australia.
Worawa is based on the philosophy of ‘walking together’. This involves the Learning and Teaching and Program addressing the Key Learning Areas of mainstream curriculum whilst taking into account Aboriginal culture, values, spiritual beliefs and learning styles.
The Worawa ethos of ‘Walking Together’ is aimed at bringing together Aboriginal knowledge, values and pedagogy and quality academic staff with knowledge and understanding of Indigenous histories, cultures and communities, thus enriching the College program through shared wisdom and knowledge.
