Day Structure

Nuriootpa High operates with 7 lessons each day of the week. Our community has elected to incorporate an early closure on Monday afternoons to enable staff to access to additional Training and Development time each week from 2:40 until 5:00pm.

Students must be at school by 8.50am. The grounds are supervised from 8am until the final bus leaves (about 4pm). Lesson times vary from day to day as indicated below. Student Development (SD) on a Wednesday and Friday is used for access to relevant programs, seminars, wellbeing and career counselling activities.

NOTE: The lesson and break times for Term 4 2024 have changed as the school is trialling 30 minute break times for both recess and lunch.
