Inspire – High potential and gifted education
At Broken Hill Public School, we offer a wide range of engaging programs, with a focus on high potential and gifted education. This area of learning is dedicated to identifying and nurturing students who demonstrate exceptional abilities, talents, or potential across intellectual, creative, social-emotional, or physical domains. These students often require differentiated learning experiences that go beyond the standard curriculum to remain challenged and engaged. Programs in this area aim to provide enrichment, acceleration, and personalised support to help high-potential learners reach their full capabilities while fostering wellbeing, resilience, and a love of learning.

School times
At our school, we do not use bells to signal break times; instead, bells are only used in emergency situations. Our school day begins at 9:00am, with recess from 11:00am to 11:20am and lunch from 1:00pm to 1:50pm. The school day finishes at 3:00pm.
This approach helps create a calm and welcoming environment for our students
