Capital City Academy is a highly attractive, state of the art building, designed by one of the world's leading firms of architects Foster & Partners in 2003. Its all-glass design allows the building to be flooded with natural light; making it an ideal location for filming. It is a crescent shaped rectangular shape comprising three storeys at the entrance and tapering down to two storeys at the far end. The external design of the building holds many unique features. The sheer size of the building is immediately apparent, spanning 1/2km in length. A covered walkway runs along the side of the building supported by a row of pillars and lit with spotlights. Internally a central spine organises the building, forming a spacious internal street that runs through the centre of the school. A number of balconies overlook the central ground floor walkway. Classrooms run along the two sides of The Academy boasts a large range of facilities including a theatre (capacity 250), two dance studios, two libraries, dining hall, sports hall, four tennis courts, external and internal basketball courts, netball court and full-size all-weather football pitch.
