Headteacher's Welcome
A strong mind needs a strong heart...
Welcome to Saint Christina’s. Nestled between Primrose Hill and Regent’s Park in the heart of St John’s Wood, we are a vibrant independent preparatory school for boys and girls aged 3-11.
Our identity as a co-educational Catholic school is shaped by an open and inclusive spirit, welcoming children of every background, belief, and story. Rooted in the true meaning of Catholic: universal, we celebrate the richness of our diversity, with kindness woven into the very fabric of our community.
This is the golden thread that guides us - our compass, our core value, and the foundation of how we live, learn, and lead together.
At Saint Christina’s, education is a journey of academic and personal growth. We nurture what the ancient Greeks called ‘eudaemonia’—a sense of wellbeing, human flourishing, and the fulfillment of potential. Education is about drawing out the potential that lives in all children; this just needs the right conditions to come to life.
Our mission is to help your children grow into their best and most authentic selves. We encourage confidence, curiosity, and critical thinking, guiding them to become self-determined learners who embrace the world with purpose, integrity and courage. Above all, we aim to ensure all our children feel comfortable in their own skin.
While our website offers a glimpse into the richness of life at Saint Christina’s, the true magic happens when you step through our doors - where our values are given a human face. We would be delighted to welcome your family to Saint Christina’s, where your children can flourish—living with purpose, learning with curiosity, and leading with kindness. Come and experience the joy of our ambitious and engaging pupils, meet our inspiring teachers, and feel the warmth and sense of belonging that make our community so very special.
