Maths Week in the Juniors

Posted: 28th April 2017

Our budding Mathematicians

Miss Gambrill, Form Teacher Upper IA and Maths subject leader, has been busy organising Maths Week in the Juniors with great results! Here, she reports on the activities enjoyed this week:

‘This week the Junior and Prep girls celebrated Maths Week. The main aims of the week are to promote Mathematics as a multifaceted subject which can be learnt in a variety of ways.

Our girls participated in a ‘Mind Missions’ workshop where they learnt the importance of collaboration in problem solving; they travelled through the galaxy and experienced Maths in a theatre production; and they also participated in ‘No Pen Wednesday’ where they abandoned traditional methods of learning concepts and completed practical activities.

A huge thank you to all staff, parents and, of course, our Mathematicians in the making for another hugely successful week!’

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.
