Buildings
The site of the school included one of the large houses common to this part of Ealing. The house was converted to form the centre of the new school - entrance hall, headmistress's study, library and some classrooms. Over the past seventy years remodelling has transformed the interior but there are still features of the original hall and rooms and the entrance steps remain the same as in 1931. Later additions to the site include further classrooms, a science block, hall and gymnasium and most recently (2003) a music recital hall and associated music facilities and an indoor swimming pool.
In 2010, the new Sixth Form Centre opened and in summer 2011 a new building project began to provide a large sports hall, school hall and new drama facilities.

Famous quotes containing the word buildings:
“Now, since our condition accommodates things to itself, and transforms them according to itself, we no longer know things in their reality; for nothing comes to us that is not altered and falsified by our Senses. When the compass, the square, and the rule are untrue, all the calculations drawn from them, all the buildings erected by their measure, are of necessity also defective and out of plumb. The uncertainty of our senses renders uncertain everything that they produce.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
