The school is simply breathtaking - a sight to behold! It is of unique architectural interest and was built in the 1930s by the British to originally serve as an army barracks. This striking stone building, with its classic Hellenistic elements and Roman arcades, never fails to impress our students. The school is located in a quiet part of St. Julians, yet is close to the nightlife centre called Paceville. Our campus includes air-conditioned classrooms, apartments, a residence, a bar, bistro, and disco, an AV room, study room, library, and games room, a volleyball court, and of course, our famous swimming pool. Our classrooms and apartments are also accessible by wheelchair and comfort apartments and studios are all air-conditioned. This really is the perfect place to study and relax. The sun shines practically all year round, making it a truly memorable outdoor experience with unlimited leisure opportunities.
