Please vote for us! The cost of coaches is becoming crippling, which means it’s becoming unrealistic to go on school trips 😢

Our new EYFS outdoor provision is already being enjoyed by our current Reception children; learning, exploring and growing every day.

Will your child be stepping onto our EYFS stage this September? We can’t wait to meet you!

We are looking forward to welcoming Fr Joseph into school to celebrate Mass on this important day.

World Book Day is coming up on Thursday 5th March!
Once again, we will be asking children and staff to dress as a word. The focus is to celebrate words, be creative and to have fun- not to buy expensive costumes.

We’re so excited to reintroduce our EYFS outdoor provision! 😎

It’s just been completed and we’re so pleased with it! And… most importantly, the children absolutely approve!

Designed around the EYFS principles, the space encourages learning through play, exploration and creativity.🎨🎉

We can’t wait to see this purposeful area support our children for years to come as they build confidence, independence and the key skills that form the foundations of their learning journey at St Augustine’s!

We are looking forward to sharing more information about our EYFS provision and how our children learn through it. 🧠

The Parish of St John Paul II Thank you to Father Joseph for blessing our new provision! 🤲
