A Prayer from CAFOD 

In the spirit of Pope Francis’ encyclical ‘Laudato Si’, ‘On Care for our Common Home’ and Walking to School Week at St Augustine’s Priory we produce the following prayer, composed by Fr Michael Fitzsimons for CAFOD.

This prayer has been put up in the school and is a useful reminder of guiding us to care for our common home.  From being aware of climate change, to being awake to the beauty of creation and working for justice for the whole of creation, this prayer reminds us of our duties and responsibilities to each other and to the planet we live on.  We hope that you find it of value.

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.
