Nursery celebrate Diwali

Posted: 17th November 2020

Festival of Lights.

In the Nursery they have been celebrating Diwali, the festival of lights and one of the major festivals celebrated by Hindus, Jains and Sikhs.  It is a five day festival and during this time, among other celebrations, homes are illuminated and fireworks set off!

Mrs Nikolova reports, ‘We have had a wonderful time in the Nursery experiencing Diwali.   

We read ‘Lighting a lamp’ story, made and decorated clay divas and made colourful fireworks’ pictures.’

Here are some pictures from the Nursery to show the wonderful things they have been doing!

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.
