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.
300 students, who had been temporarily housed in demountables at Darwin High School, transferred immediately to the new buildings.
The school was reopened in 1975 with classes starting at 7am to avoid heat as the air conditioning was not functioning.
After a successful "Lighthouse" program, in 2007, Nightcliff began transitioning to a Middle School and retained Years 8 and 9.
[3] The school caters for a wide range of sport including; cricket, Aussie rules, soccer, tennis and martial arts.
