History
In 2015, it was decided that the Les Quennevais secondary school buildings needed to be replaced because they were outdated, too small for the student body, and on a site that is too small for a modern school.[3] The new build took place on fields 80, 84 and 85 off Rue Carrée and was opened in September 2020.[4]
