Scribe: Volume II

Posted: 30th March 2022

Creative Writing Club.

It is a wonderful event when the Creative Writing Club produces a new edition of Scribe.  Following Scribe Volume I and also the beautifully written Priory Pilgrimage, Mrs King, the Co-ordinator of the Creative Writing Club, is proud to announce that Scribe Volume II is now published!

Scribe, a collection of poetry and prose, is available to read in flipbooks on the website, by clicking on the following links:

In her foreword to Scribe:  Volume Two, Mrs King writes,

‘After a Covid-induced hiatus, the Creative Writing Club is back in business and I am very happy to introduce the second edition of Scribe.  Scribe contains creative writing produced by members of the club this year, and the work demonstrates a sensitive and imaginative response to some of the questions and challenges of recent months.’

Mrs King goes on to relate how the first part of Scribe is inspired by Creating Space, this year’s St Augustine’s Priory theme and full of so many meanings.  The last section is inspired by the works of Chaucer and ‘Gawain and the Green Knight’, emphasising pilgrimage and quest and proved a wonderful jumping off point for the club members’ creativity.

Mrs King finishes by speaking about the next step for the Creative Writing Club:  ‘Our next project is working towards creating a Children’s Picture Book – look out for some wonderful imaginative work, which will be displayed in the Scriptorium in the Summer Term.’

We hope you enjoy Scribe:  Volume II, it is a wonderful booklet and a tribute to the imagination, creativity and hard work of the writers.

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.
