Exercising minds and stretching muscles

Posted: 22nd April 2021

Military Activities. 

From Lower II through to Priory 6, and even staff, Monday and Tuesday were days of military activities at St Augustine’s Priory when M A D Education (Military Activity Days in Schools) arrived to put us all through our paces.  A range of exciting activities took place in the school grounds, including an obstacle course which stretched minds and muscles.

These exercises were excellent learning tools for building and developing confidence, teamwork, communication skills, leadership qualities and problem solving techniques.

   

The weather was ideal for such a day and everyone enjoyed crawling through nets, jumping over fences and hauling tyres!

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.
