There's a large area of grass that surrounds the school building and from the front there is a long gravel drive that leads to the academy gates. Out back, there's a track and playing fields and also a lot of free grass space for lounging around on summer days. There's tarmac courts but the paving isn't as level as it perhaps should be, and a sheltered courtyard which is often used by yonger students during the day, and loitering older students after school hours.
