The school has recently undergone an extensive building re-development project which has replaced the former buildings with eight new classrooms, each with additional computer areas and art areas, a new library, a food technology area, physiotherapy treatment room, two disabled toilets, two new toilet areas, and a music and drama room. The school also has a further four classrooms which were built in the 1930’s. The school is easily accessible by wheelchair.

The school landscape has also been redeveloped recently. There is a purpose-built play area for Year R children with safety surfacing and there is a play area for Year 1 and Year 2 children. The garden area in the North East of the school site was developed during the Summer of 2004. A new phase of development was completed summer 2005 with the building of a car park and of a new entry area with administrative offices, a new medical room and Headteacher’s and Deputy Headteacher’s rooms.
