History
= Blocks
=When the school first opened in 1931 it was a single block, formerly known as 'A Block'. Over the years several other blocks were opened as the school expanded. The most recent block built was 'G Block'.
In 2010 when the new school campus was completed, all but one block of the old school was demolished, G block. G Block went up for sale with the intent for use as a community building.
Now the school has four blocks named after historical figures: S Block (William Shakespeare), K Block (Martin Luther King Jr.), C Block (Marie Curie) & B Block (Isambard Kingdom Brunel).
Facilities
The school has facilities for teaching and recording of music, with two suites of electronic instruments linked up to mac minis and a recording studio. For sports the school has: a large multi-use sports hall; an activity studio for use with dance/gym/trampolines; an AstroTurf pitch for all year round football and several rugby pitches and cricket strip. Science labs, technology suites, and ICT rooms are at all levels in the school, which operates a full wireless network for laptops in each department and interactive ICT resources in every classroom. An open-plan restaurant and a cafe are on the ground level.
Being a community campus, the school has a gym and several community rooms which can be hired out by local groups and the community.
