A message from our Principal, Mrs Frances Haji-Ali:
"Today is National Boarding School Principal Day, and I want to take the opportunity to express my deepest gratitude to all our families for the trust you place in me each day. Entrusting someone with the care and guidance of your children is something I hold with great respect and care, and I am truly honoured to be part of their journey here at Clontarf Aboriginal College.
Being the principal of a boarding school carries a unique and rewarding responsibility—one that extends far beyond the classroom. It means being present in the quiet moments, the challenges, the triumphs, and the growth that happens when students are away from home. It’s a role that demands heart, patience, and unwavering commitment—and in return, it offers a deep sense of purpose and fulfillment that I cherish every day.
Thank you for allowing me to walk alongside your children as they grow, learn, and thrive". ... See MoreSee Less
