CNC was established in 2008 after extensive consultation with members of the community and that strong community involvement continues to this day. The College began its journey as a middle school, with a strong belief in the value of teamwork and a spirit of collaboration that has come to pervade the school ethos.
Over time, a visibly strong sense of belonging and pride in the school has grown along with a significant expansion to the breadth and sophistication of the College's facilities, along with its ceremonies, extra-curricular activities, musical and sporting events. Cape Naturaliste College has consistently shown the resilience to adapt to new challenges whilst maintaining the essence of its culture.
