Classrooms are spacious and the gymnasium is full-sized with a stage. We have both a well-appointed computer lab as well as computer resources in each classroom. We have a separate art room. Children have six acres of school grounds to enjoy play. In addition to the regular program, the school is the temporary location for the Piitoaysis Aboriginal Family School program.
