Despite difficult beginnings due in part to multiple changes of sites and amalgamations, after the Second World War, the school truly flourished, going through a number of successful principals and expanding a great deal. Recent developments include a new Forrest Library in 2009, a modern Middle School facility in 2010 and a new aquatic facility in 2013.
