The unusual saw-tooth shaped canopy spans over 29m and covers an area of about 640 sqm. Valleys and ridges are formed by cables that are attached to high and low points across the courtyard. The canopy provides superb all year round shelter from sun and rain for the students and has been designed to withstand the significant winds of the region.
