Above the doorway is a moulded plaque inscribed with "CHRISTCHURCH SCHOOLS 1887." The front of the building is characterized by moulded string courses and decorative hood moulds, as well as buttresses and buttress-like panels between the windows. At the roof ridge, there is a wooden and lead lantern with an ogee roof and a spirelet.
