Description

Saint Christina's School is Independent Primary school in Westminster for kids aged 3 to 11 (Gender - Mixed )

Saint Christina’s is the only co-educational Catholic prep day school for pupils aged 3-11 in North and Central London. They welcome children of all faiths and none. They are proud to take the lead in providing an outstanding future-facing education for both girls and boys, preparing them for all stages of their life journey by giving them a broad and relevant set of skills to meet the future demands of a complex, competitive society.Educating children in the Catholic tradition means being part of a warm, caring and compassionate community in which everyone is encouraged to think about others and care for our environment. A key feature of our Catholicism is the way in which we tend to each child’s individual needs. At Saint Christina’s we talk about ‘stewardship’. For us this means that we hold your child in trust. It means taking each child by the hand and walking their path so that, in their time with us, they have the opportunity to become the very best that they can be.

Remote Learning
The lockdowns of 2020 and 2021 meant that in common with schools throughout the UK, Saint Christina’s was forced to close its doors to everyone except the children of key workers, and our teaching went online.During the lockdowns, the School was uncharacteristically quiet without all the children and their teachers, but class groups came together daily for registration, conversations and prayers and we came together as a School for virtual assemblies. Ensuring this sense of belonging was essential for the mental health and well-being of all members of our School community.
