Spanish Film Night

Posted: 16th March 2018

An invitation to support education.

In a recent Priory Post article we spoke of how Ms de Lahitte, teacher of Spanish, runs an initiative to support Fundación Anpuy, an organisation which provides educational and social opportunities for children, adolescents and young people from deprived backgrounds.

 

On Thursday 22nd March at 4.00pm the Modern Languages Department will be hosting a Film Night for Lower IV girls upwards to raise funds for Fundación Anpuy to continue to support Nicolás Aramayo, a 9 year old boy who attends the school, ‘Escuela Nicolás Avellaneda’ in the city of Salta, in the north of Argentina.

This will be the first of two Spanish Film nights; the Juniors can look forward to one next term! We do hope that Seniors will support this initiative by attending the film ‘Ocho apellidos vascos’ (Spanish Affair) on 22nd March and by donating on the day. Soft drinks and snacks will be on sale at the event.

Ocho apellidos vascos is one of the biggest Spanish-made box-office hits of all time! Rafa, a young southerner, travels to the north of Spain seeking to win the heart of Amaia, a Basque girl he as met in Seville. As he tries to pass himself off as Basque, he has to deal with confusing language-based situations.

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.
