About Fregon
Welcome to Fregon Anangu School.
The majority of students are Anangu and their first
language is Pitjantjatjara which is spoken across the APY lands.
The learning of English commences at our preschool but
all students have a formal Pitjantjatjara once a week.
A significant factor for Anangu Communities and
Schools is the transient nature of the population due to culture, family
or funerals. The School can have many students from other communities
who attend for periods of days or weeks.
In 2015 the Federal Government initiated an
attendance and employment strategy which has overseen a steady
improvement in student attendance.
Limited housing for Anangu, force people to live in
large family groups within Fregon Anangu Community and sometimes on
their homelands.
