Forthcoming events 

Mr Martin, Director of Music looks forward to forthcoming musical events:

‘As we approach the Spring Concert on 22nd March, lovely sounds are emanating from the last few rehearsals of all the ensembles and choirs which will be taking part.  We are particularly looking forward to a James Bond medley from the Senior Orchestra and what promises to be a fantastic Disney medley combining choir and orchestra.

Certificates for the Music Festival will be handed out at the assembly on 14th March allowing the whole school to recognise the talents of our musical girls.  The Senior School was treated to a performance of James Bay’s Let It Go by Yara Derbas and Jessica Effenberger (Lower V), which was much enjoyed. On a different note, it is great to have reintroduced the singing of a hymn as part of each Senior assembly. This is enabling our girls to increase their repertoire of hymns, and it is lovely to start the day with a song of praise.’

Strengthening Our Community: The Return of Boys to our Preps and Pre-Preps

We are excited to share that, from September 2026, boys will begin moving up from our Nursery into Reception, marking the gradual reintroduction of boys into our Prep and Pre-Prep School.

This step reflects growing interest from families who value our strong holistic ethos and unique grounds and setting and would like their sons and daughters to share their educational journey together.

At St Augustine’s, our strong sense of community, academic excellence, and deep care for each individual child remain at the heart of everything we do. This is a natural evolution of our school rather than a change to who we are, building on our strengths and allowing us to offer the same joyful, inspiring education to even more children.
