It is set in lovely grounds with lovely trees, bushes, and rose beds. It boasts a sizable playing area made of grass, mature trees, and hedges. A tidy trail and interactive markings are present on the playground. Six classrooms, an early years section, a library, and a spectacular purpose-built hall are all present at the school.
