Welcome to

St George’s

Children are at the centre of all that we do at St George’s Preparatory School.  We believe that every boy and girl has the ability to excel in his or her own way; it is our privilege to help them to achieve their full potential and to encourage them to take as much pleasure in the success of others as they do in their own.  We do not aim to do this alone but look to work closely with parents in partnership.

Choosing the right school for their son or daughter is one of the most important decisions a parent will make.  My staff and I are always delighted to show parents around our School, to answer their questions and to discuss the needs of each child whether they are already a pupil or if they are thinking of joining us at La Hague Manor.

A Helping Hand for Haiti

On Friday we offered the people of Haiti a ‘Helping Hand’ in the form of a message spelt out in 10p coins. A large bucket of coins equates to a magnificent £563.00. We will add the proceeds of two Cake Sales (Reception and Form IV) plus any individual donations we receive.  We hope to have a final cheque to hand over at the end of this week. It is not too late to add to our collection and Mrs Banahan will be very happy to receive any donations you should wish to make.

 

Goodbye to a friend and colleague

St George’s is a community which greatly values and cherishes its family members.  We are extremely sad when it is time to say goodbye to long standing staff who have helped make us what we are today.  Since joining our ranks in 1997, Sue Lancashire worked diligently behind the scenes to ensure that classrooms were clean and ready for the start of each new day.  At all times she did this with a cheerful smile on her face and a willingness to go the extra mile.  We are saddened that Sue has had to step down after 13 years of dedicated service.  On behalf of parents, pupils and staff we offer Sue and her family our very best wishes for the days ahead.

 

The Week Ahead

For the benefit of new parents I should explain that each week I reflect, as  Headmaster, on the trials and tribulations of the previous week whilst looking forward with great enthusiasm to the week ahead.  For the latest report click here>>

School Meals

The School is proud to offer a cooked meal to each pupil and staff member every day.  This important social occasion helps the bonding process and teaches important social skills.   We remain committed to quality and strive to offer healthy options which are interesting and appetising.  For this week’s menus  click here>>


News Update 

 

 

Early Years' Presentation 

On Saturday we opened our doors to the parents of the Nursery and Reception classes, and to prospective parents. I am delighted to say that we were very busy. This echoes the interest that has been shown recently in our school as measured by the number of tours I have conducted. Mrs O’Neil, Mrs McKimmon and Miss Staite gave an interesting presentation on the expectations of an academic ‘Foundation’ department and the opportunities our children enjoy.

The parents were then taken on a tour of the School by our senior pupils. After a quick change from their football kits and an even quicker biscuit, the children were ready to tell our visitors all about us. Judging by the many good comments we received of our pupils, I think they acquitted themselves with great credit.

The visitors then assembled in the walled garden to meet the rest of the team and enjoy a cup of tea, a cake and a good chat.
