Nightcliff Middle School is a coeducational state school situated between Nightcliff Road, Aralia Street and Ryland Road, in the northern Darwin suburb of Rapid Creek, Northern Territory, Australia. ==History== The school was named after the adjacent suburb of Nightcliff.〔Barter, Leith (1994, p. 47). From Wartime Camp to Garden Suburb: A Short History of Nightcliff and Rapid Creek. Historical Society of the Northern Territory.〕 In the mid 1960s, planning had commenced for a high school to serve the region, but it was not until 8 July 1970 that Nightcliff High School was officially opened. 300 students, who had been temporarily housed in demountables at Darwin High School, transferred immediately to the new buildings. Following Cyclone Tracy, the new school, which had survived the devastation better than most buildings, was immediately pressed into service as an evacuation centre, then becoming a hostel for workers involved in the temporary repair of essential services.〔Nightcliff High School (1992 p. 40). Nightcliff High School: 21 Years of Education. Nightcliff, N.T.〕 Following Cyclone Tracy, students of the school were temporarily enrolled to attend Casuarina High School situated approximately 8 kilometres away. The school was reopened in 1975 with classes starting at 7am to avoid heat as the air conditioning was not functioning. In 2007, Nightcliff retained Years 8 and 9 only due to low senior student numbers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nightcliff Middle School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
