PRINCIPAL'S
welcome
I am incredibly proud to be the Principal of Avanti Park School and hope that our website gives you a small insight into some of the wonderful things we do here.
Our ethos at Avanti Park is built on three areas: Educational Excellence, Character Formation and Spiritual Insight and we are very proud of our unique school culture built around ‘The Avanti Way’.
Please do contact the school office with any questions you may have about our unique, wonderful school or to arrange a visit.
Learning extends far beyond the traditional classroom boundaries. We offer a rich array of co-curricular activities and programs designed to enhance students' educational experience and develop their varied interests and talents. From sports teams and music to art clubs and technology, the opportunities are tailored to foster skills such as teamwork, leadership, and creativity.
Enriching Experiences
Our curriculum immerses students in the powerful knowledge and intellectual conversations of a broad range of subject disciplines, equipping them to make sense of the world around them and to excel in a range of fields. By nurturing students’ sense of identity and perspective, purpose and connection, it creates capacity for informed and conscientious collaboration now and in the future.
Academic Life
Avanti emphasises the importance of mental and physical well-being. Regular yoga and meditation sessions are incorporated into our timetable, helping students cultivate mindfulness and physical fitness as foundational aspects of their lives.
Yoga & Meditation
Avanti offers a range of educational visits including retreats and trips both nationally and internationally. Children have visited The Isle of Wight, Wookey Hole and Longleat amongst many others.
Educational Visits
An important part of our ethos is around the provision of hot, fresh, nutritious meals. Sharing tasty, healthy school lunches is an integral part of the educational experience at an Avanti school.
School Meals
Our school is a dynamic, exciting place to be that, is open to big ideas and creativity all with a genuine focus on student and staff wellbeing.
