Fire

On 5 April 2005, a large fire occurred at the school's central building. Many of its facilities, including the main hall, the library and 40 classrooms, were severely damaged.^[1][2] A 15-year-old boy was charged with arson and burglary over the incident, but was later cleared of these charges.^[3]

The school site was redeveloped into a single complex following the fire.^[4] A time capsule was buried at the school in 2008 to commemorate its restoration.^[5]
