St Colette's was founded in 1920 and is a very successful co-educational pre-preparatory school catering for day pupils aged from 2.5 to 7+ years. It is a small school which encourages pupils to work to a high standard achieving excellent results at the 6+ entrance examination level in a happy and stimulating environment. Drama, speech, music and ballet are a great strength and productions form an integral part of the curriculum. The school aims to offer a programme of learning suited to the child's individual needs and special emphasis is placed on pastoral care. The school encourages a Christian way of thinking encouraging kindness, honesty and courtesy to others within the community.
