The South Australian Government built an adjoining Community Recreation Centre at a cost of approximately 9 million dollars, and was completed in 1993. This centre included two individual stadiums (one with retractable grandstand seating), a gymnasium and a 500 seat performance theatre. Special flooring in the stadiums was made from a special rubber compound, designed to prevent sporting injuries. All three schools and the public share the Recreation and Arts Centre.
The local hockey field is also shared by the three schools.
The Dame Roma Mitchell Centre was recently built near the Administration Block of the School. This is a specialist arts centre with facilities for drama and dance. This has an upper level, which has a large lecture theatre used for assemblies and lessons for various subjects. This facility is also shared by the three schools.
