Our Value this half term is JOY. We are thinking about what it means to have joy and what joy means to us and to others. What sort of things give you joy? Mrs Lee loves sharing all our achievements in Celebration Worship. 

We are exploring more about JOY in our collective worships this half term as well as sharing JOY with each other at lots of our special events in school - the visit from the Mobile Farm, visits to the cinema, our attendance tea party and all the special things we do to celebrate Christmas.

Welcome

Welcome to the family of St Augustine’s Church of England School!

I am delighted and privileged to introduce myself as the Headteacher of St Augustine’s CE School.  

Our school is situated in West Central Halifax and serves a local community where children from different faiths, backgrounds and abilities learn, socialise and play together. We          are a church school and embed Christian values into all aspects of school life. Our Christian Values - chosen by the pupils, staff, parents and governors are Friendship, Honesty, Respect and Care. 

Our curriculum has been scoped and written to ensure that it provides high quality learning opportunities, based on the interests and experiences of our children. Through well-planned and sequenced learning, each child will develop their knowledge, skills and individual qualities within a safe and stimulating learning environment.

As pupils, staff and governors, we regularly revisit our vision for the school. Everything that we do is rooted in our vision and the decisions that we make put our children and their needs at the centre. 

Our School is a beacon of hope, where children and adults are respected and flourish individually; where achievement, aspiration are developed and nurtured and confidence built. A caring community where experiences help us learn for life and find our place within the world. 

I hope you enjoy finding out all about the caring school family that I am privileged to lead on our website. You are WELCOME and ENCOURAGED to come and look round school at any time. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you would like to come or if you require any further information about us.

I look forward to meeting you.

Mrs Ruth Lee
Headteacher
