Prep I Ballet Display

Posted: 23rd May 2019

On Wednesday 15th May, Prep I treated Miss Keane, Miss Corr, Miss Beaman and their parents to a wonderful display of ballet, showing us what they had learnt in their weekly ballet lessons this year with specialist teacher Ms Perry. All the girls were dressed in their pink tutus and ballet shoes as they showed us their naughty toes, good toes and elegant plies. They danced to a variety of tunes from Tina Turner’s Rolling on the River to Chim Chimney from Mary Poppins.

Ballet encourages good posture, improves coordination and builds confidence. Ballet also promotes a healthy lifestyle, is a great way to bond with classmates and most of all ballet is fun! We could see from the girls’ beaming faces as they performed that they were thoroughly enjoying themselves.  

At the end of the display Ms Perry told the parents how hard the girls had worked this year and how focused they have been in their lessons. Well done Prep I on a wonderful ballet display!

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.
