John Septimus Roe Anglican Community School - Campus

Campus

The school is located across two sites. The original campus at Beechboro caters for primary school students while the newer, larger campus in Mirrabooka ranges from kindergarten to Year 12. Each location has a school chapel: at Beechboro this is St Bede's Chapel, and at Mirrabooka, St Paul's. Both sites include canteens, libraries, oval spaces and gymnasiums.

The Catherine O'Neill Library at the Mirrabooka Campus is particularly notable for its size, boasting two floors and a collection of several thousand books. Attached to the Library is the ICT centre containing two computer labs, offices, and a Media room. The Performing Arts Centre (PAC), has a dedicated tiered-theatre, music practice rooms, offices and an organ room. The PAC also features a dance theatre, changerooms, greenroom, sizeable backstage area and a cafe, catering for students in years 11 and 12, teachers and parents. The Mirrabooka gymnasium contains two full sized basketball courts, a mezzanine level (used as a personal training area), offices, kitchens, storerooms and two classrooms. This gym is also used as the main assembly building on the campus and is also used for large-scale events such as Founder's Day and Thanksgiving and Presentation Nights. The Science block features 8 laboratories, offices, computer room, Laboratory room and a special open plan laboratory for interactive science. The Middle School block features 15 classrooms, staff lounges and offices, a common student area with lounges, televisions which display important details, and a kitchenette as well as laptop trolleys. The school grounds are beautifully landscaped and buildings surround the central Carnley Court named after former Archbishop of Perth, Peter Carnley.

The Beechboro campus' gymnasium, The Michael Brommilow Centre, features one full size basketball court, offices, changerooms, storage, kitchens, and is also used as the major assembly area at the Beechboro campus. The Beechboro campus also features many classrooms specifically tailored to suit each year level in the Primary Years of Schooling.
