Kids learn at school

St Hilda’s is a community of girls aged four to eleven years, whose infectious enthusiasm, politeness and busy purposefulness is immediately evident to visitors. The girls thrive in a caring yet challenging environment, which teaches them to be resilient and resourceful learners, and ultimately to be exceptionally well prepared to take their next step to the senior school of their choice.

Kids learn at school

Our youngest children aged 2-4 years are encouraged to play, explore and learn, under the watchful and inspiring care of specialist staff. Our packed programmes of teacher and child-led activities are especially designed to develop the whole child in ways appealing and appropriate to their current age and stage, including specialist teaching in subjects such as dance, music, swimming, PE, French and Spanish.
