Indigenous Cabbage Tree Island community moves into new temporary home

Students displaced from an Indigenous community on the Northern Rivers have moved into a temporary campus, nearly nine months after floods destroyed their school.

Until their school is rebuilt the students will be taught in a demountable school erected in the village of Wardell, about six minutes drive away from Cabbage Tree Island.
