History
[edit | edit source]The school was established in 1995 in a cluster of demountable buildings at Rockingham Senior High School while the first stage of construction worth $13.5 million was commenced. This stage was completed in 1995 and included general classrooms, science laboratories, a library, a sports hall and technology and enterprise facilities.[2] The final stage was completed in 1999, cost $6 million, and included the middle school, administration area, performing arts centre and computing facilities. During 2013, an entire new block was started. The new block contains S+E[clarification needed] facilities and has a new car-park.
