About Warakirri College in Blacktown

Our Blacktown campus opened its doors in 2017. Located next door to Blacktown TAFE on Sunnyholt Road, it’s just a short walk to the train station and buses.

Our sunny classrooms have a relaxed and calm feel. Smaller class sizes mean students get the help they need.

We have lounges and chill-out zones in our common areas. Students have their own kitchen and tables where they can make meals and relax during breaks.

We provide food and snacks for our students to enjoy and it’s not unusual to find staff enjoying toasties with the students! It’s a safe, warm and friendly environment at Warakirri College. 

We love being part of the Blacktown community!

What is learning like at Warakirri Blacktown?

Our Blacktown campus enrols students from Years 10 to 12.  

Year 10

For students joining us in Year 10, we work towards a RoSA qualification, with small class sizes, extra learning support and a calm atmosphere.

We focus on improving literacy and numeracy, as this helps across all subject areas. Our junior students are also part of community programs such Blacktown Youth Forum or Food Hamper at Blacktown area community centre.  

Years 11 and 12

We offer a range of ATAR and non-ATAR subjects including modern history, maths, food technology, business studies, CAFS, biology, numeracy and more.

Our students’ learning needs come first and we provide extra support and provisions in exams and assessment tasks.

We encourage our students to be themselves. We only ask that they work with us to aim high and achieve their goals. At Warakirri we know that education matters!

What support do I get at Warakirri Blacktown?

We give our students lots of support and help, not just in the classroom. 

We have a full-time counsellor and youth worker on the staff, and students are given personal support and care.

We know all our students’ names because they are part of the Warakirri family. 

Getting outside

Education is more than just the classroom, so at Warakirri Blacktown we value getting our students outside into the beautiful Australian environment.

We regularly have excursions and camps run by our Outdoor Educator. There’s nothing like walking along a beach or sitting under the stars to make you feel like you belong!

Getting a job

We have a Careers Advisor who works with our students to help them find career pathways, TAFE opportunities, write resumes and more.

Even once a student has graduated, they can come back for some advice or just to tell us about a great job they have.

We support our students to be passionate and hard-working members of the Blacktown region and beyond!
