Probably correct. However, I need to see the sepals to decide if it is Drosera auriculata (flowers usually pink) or Drosera peltata (flowers usually white). PlantNET says that Drosera peltata flowers are always white, but that is not the feature that is indicative of the difference between these two species. From this photo it is Drosera sp.

I have added an extra photo that shows the sepals. These plants all had pink flowers and were mostly about 30cm tall. They were all growing in the woodland whereas the drosera peltata on Farrer Ridge are all growing in open grassland.
