Delungra is a small rural community 30 km west of Inverell, in the north west of NSW. the community was formed under the "Closer Settlement Act" of 1903. The area is bounded by two major grazing and farming properties of Gunnee  to the north and Myall Creek Station to the south. 

The township itself boasts a small hotel, local Bowling Club, with service centres such as a local mechanic, small general store, petrol station  and a seed/grain store. The area is generally used for sheep/beef and farming country. There is a new local vineyard which has started up over the past five years as well.

The majority of  services such as shopping, medical and equipment purchases are provided through Inverell, a large rural community of approximately 9 500.

Delungra Public School is a small rural school with strong links to the local community. The school is an integral part of the community.

The school is committed to providing a high quality educational environment, which acknowledges excellence in effort and achievement.

Staff, students and the community as a whole support student learning, encourage and promote social, academic and sporting involvement and endeavours to challenge all students.

The school itself was established in 1907. The original classroom is still in use although it has been upgraded to meet modern requirements. The school has extensive playing areas provided through generous land grants from local community trusts. It also has the benefit of nine well maintained tennis courts across the road from the main buildings.

The school currently has three fulltime staff members and a dedicated team of support staff and local casuals who support the school programs. the P&C is particularly active in supporting the students and staff in their endeavours.

The school has particularly strong links to the local community and to groups such as the RSL and the Senior Citizens Association.

In 2002 the school hosted 30 students from Campsie Public School for a week long visit as part of the Year of the Outback program. 

The highly multicultural student group had a great time in the community. Their visit brought about a  new understanding of the term  cultural diversity to the local community. The exchange visit came after Campsie hosted Delungra for a day at their school in Sydney, during the biannual major excursion.

The school has been involved in CAP for many years and has developed  a strong focus on Quality Teaching and Learning, Technology and Quality Improvement. Staff have attended the Langford Seminar and developed strong classroom programs through the support of the improvement cycle. All staff and many of the parent body have completed the HBDI Profiles to support student learning. Recently the teaching and support staff also completed the Team Management Profiles to gain a better understanding of their ability to work in teams. 

Many of the CAP programs are undertaken as part of a strong collegial network with two other local CAP schools at Gum Flat and Gilgai. This network arrangement has proved very productive for students, staff and local communities as it builds the types of supportive relationships which most benefit the isolated rural communities of CAP.
