Opening doors at Austin Friars… 14-18 October!
Opening doors at Austin Friars
Austin Friars welcome you to their Open Week, 14 – 18 October, 2024.
The Open Week at Austin Friars this October offers the perfect opportunity for you and your child to discover a school full of historical excellence and high standards of learning.
Austin Friars equips pupils with not only knowledge in the conventional sense, but with skills for life, ensuring that when students are ready to leave the school behind, they do so with the world at their feet. Subject-specialist teaching starts from age 3, and Junior School pupils enhance their learning with access to a range of subject-specific facilities – such as science laboratories, a design technology workshop and a drama studio.
With a broad and balanced curriculum on offer, there are countless possibilities of academic achievement, creative freedom and sporting excellence. Students are treated as individuals in order to reach their full potential, and extensive extra-curricular offerings are open to pupils of all ages.
The Open Week, taking place from 14th-18th October, gives parents and prospective pupils a chance to experience Austin Friars first-hand and get a taste for the flavour of life at the school, where a familiar sense of community and inclusivity underpins its ethos.
Tours covering all areas of the school – Pre-School, Junior School and Senior School – led by a senior member of staff, will be available at a variety of times for families to book onto, giving prospective pupils and families the opportunity to view the School ‘in session’ and get a feel for the school’s character and values.
Newly-appointed Headmaster, Mr Chris Hattam, said: “We are incredibly proud of our local reputation for providing a world-class experience to pupils from Cumbria, the wider UK and beyond.”
“Our Open Week acts as the first step into your journey at Austin Friars, and we look forward to helping you decide whether we can provide the right environment for your child.”
