Martu students fly 1,500km to boarding school for valuable vocational education
A remote community in Western Australia is equipping students for the future through an independent teaching program at home, and by sending senior students to a boarding school 1,500 kilometres away for vocational training.
Senior students from Parnngurr Community School are treated like rock stars when they travel south to boarding school near Esperance.
The tiny remote Aboriginal community of Parnngurr lies 370km east of Newman in Western Australia, on the edge of the Great Sandy Desert.
