St Augustine of Hippo

Posted: 19th April 2018

Hope for today.

Our patron saint, St Augustine of Hippo, the fourth century theologian and philosopher, was the bishop of Hippo in north Africa (and not to be confused with St Augustine of Canterbury).  The following quote can inspire and challenge us to be mindful and work for justice, and peace, in the world today.

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.
