Creating Space

Posted: 10th September 2021

Our theme for this year.

St Augustine’s Priory delights in having over twelve acres of grounds and pupils and staff make good use of them throughout the year.  These grounds give our pupils space to grow, learn and play, space to be themselves and space to care – for the environment and for each other.

 

In addition, we are looking forward to building work beginning soon, expanding our facilities and giving us even more space to learn, to reach towards the future.

We have therefore taken as our theme this year, Creating Space.  As the Headteacher, Mrs Raffray, commented,

‘This lovely phrase yields so many meanings – from wellbeing and prayer, to our care for our environment, or the intergalactic future.’

‘Creating Space’ fits beautifully with St Augustine’s Priory’s commitment to the development of each person, allowing each one to reach their potential in a wonderful environment.

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.
