Murrupurtiyanuwu Catholic School is a Catholic primary school from preschool (aged 4 years) to Year 6. It is managed by a Tiwi Principal and a Tiwi leadership team. Murrupurityanuwu Catholic School is situated at Nguiu, which is the main township of Bathurst Island, in the Arafura Sea off the Australian mainland. The language and culture of the Tiwi people is an integral part of the school curriculum at Murrupurtiyanuwu Catholic School. For many years the school was known as St Therese's. Bishop Gsell gave the school this name when he first came to our island. When the time drew near for us (the Indigenous people of Bathurst Island) to take on responsibilities for education, St Therese's School was the first to be handed over and became known as Murrupuritayanuwu Catholic School (MCS). The name change took place a few years before the handover of principalship. In this journey of education that we walk with our students we will meet obstacles and stormy seas. Because of this we all grow stronger and so does our understanding of what the journey of educational outcomes really means.
