Extensive grounds
St Augustine's Parish School is set on extensive grounds. Green open spaces as well as playgrounds are regularly reviewed to ensure children have safe and meaningful play areas.
Two large ovals and hard and soft courts provide extensive outdoor space for children to enjoy, through in-class activity or during playtime.
Computers & IT
Children have access to personal devices at school. You are not required to purchase a device for your child to use while at school as these will be provided for them.
