Educational Visits
At St Augustine's, we pride ourselves on delivering regular high, quality trips. Our educational trips and visitors usually directly link to one of the subjects which the children are learning about. We also a residential trip to children in Year 6, which helps them to build up their independence, ready for secondary school.
Why are trips important?
