JUNIORS
WELCOME TO OUR JUNIOR SCHOOL
Welcome to St Nicholas' Junior School where we ensure our Junior pupils thrive, experiencing enjoyment and encouragement in all areas, with tailored care and attention.
Our Junior pupils enjoy a wide and varied education at St Nicholas' School, balancing a broad curriculum with enrichment activities and trips throughout the year, all whilst benefiting from small class sizes.
We provide opportunities for every girl to excel, both in academic subjects and co-curricular activities and by the time our Junior pupils reach Year 6, they are confident, resilient, academically curious and, most importantly, kind.
Throughout St Nicholas’ Junior School, the depth and breadth of our enrichment and co-curricular programme makes full use of our fantastic grounds and outstanding facilities and expands to include competitive sports fixtures within the local community.
Pupils experience a wide range of subjects, many of which, including Computing, French, Mandarin, Performing Arts, Music, Sport and Forest School are taught by specialist teachers.
The range and quality of the education in St Nicholas’ Junior School is so strong that girls transition directly into our Senior School without needing to sit entrance examinations.
