Welcome to our dedicated faith section. On these pages you will find information about the Catholic Life in school.
St Augustine’s is a family with a strong sense of belonging both within the school and the wider community. We aim to fulfil The Bishop’s Vision ‘to make Christ known and loved, through the provision of excellent Catholic education and schools intent on finding Christ in their daily lives and sharing that encounter with others.’
“Children are a gift. They are a gift. Each one is unique and unrepeatable, and at the same time unmistakably linked to his or her roots. Indeed, to be a son or a daughter according to God’s plan means carrying in oneself the memory and hope of a love that has become tangible by kindling the life of another human being, original and new.”
Pope Francis
The children at St Augustine’s use their gifts to contribute to the life of the school and wider community in many different ways. Staff, Children and governors all live out in thought, word and action and all pupils clearly understand what it means to serve the Lord in all they do.
The children understand the Catholic nature of our school and our Mission Statement and can discuss its meaning and relevance to their own lives.

Look out for our special prayer spaces – a lovely place to pray and reflect. Our Mini Vinnies and Chaplaincy children plan, organise and share prayer stations in our school chapel. Prayer spaces give children a an opportunity to develop skills of personal reflection and to explore prayer in an open, inclusive and safe environment.
