School tours of Parliament House are hosted by Members of Parliament or their staff. The maximum number of student attendees on one tour is 60 students (two classes).
To organise a Parliament House visit, you must make your booking directly through the office of a Member of Parliament.
We recommend requesting your booking a minimum of one month before your intended visit date.
- Contact the office of the local MP whose electorate covers your school, or alternatively, a Member of the Legislative Council.
To find your local MP and their office contact details:
a) Use the Electoral Commission SA interactive boundaries map to determine your school’s electorate via address.
b) Search for the electorate and corresponding member on our member search page.
You can view a list of Legislative Council Members and contact details here. - Request the type of program that suits your class.
Non-sitting day tours allow your group to explore the building, sit in Members’ seats, and interact more with the building space.
Sitting day tours allow your groups to watch Parliament in action, but can only be conducted from the public viewing galleries in limited time slots.
View the sitting calendar - Work with the office to plan your date and time.
We recommend having at least three date and time options in mind. If you would like to book in more than two classes (60 students), you will need to book multiple time slots.
