Meeting Members of Staff…

Posted: 10th September 2018

Miss H Snell.

We are pleased to welcome Miss Snell who joins us this term as LAMDA teacher, an-ever popular subject which gives pupils the opportunity to enter graded exams in areas such as the speaking of verse and prose and acting.  Here she introduces herself:

‘I am delighted that I will be teaching LAMDA at St Augustine’s Priory and am really looking forward to meeting my students. When I was at school, I was fortunate enough to take Speech and Drama classes and I believe them to have played a significant part in my own development. This is one of the reasons why I love to teach LAMDA and it gives me great satisfaction to see my students grow in confidence and develop a love of performance. I have no doubt that I will enjoy teaching the girls at St Augustine’s Priory and am looking forward to getting to know them and seeing them shine.

I trained at The Birmingham School of Acting and have three years’ experience as a professional actress. This includes acting with The Young Shakespeare Company and touring with Oddsocks Productions in the open air. Since then, I have taught English in Vietnam, worked at a Special Needs school, trained as a Primary School Teacher and taught LAMDA. I will be challenging the girls to achieve to the best of their ability but above all, I want my students to love learning and have fun…I know I will!’

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.
