For primary students, the school uses the specialized 'Read Write Inc.' literacy program. French is introduced as a mandatory subject from Year 4 onwards. Campus physical amenities include a swimming pool, a separate training pool, a multi-purpose sports hall, football pitches, and basketball courts.
