Our weekday open days provide an opportunity to see the Kindergarten and Lower School in action and meet the Senior Leadership team. At our Saturday open days there will be an opportunity to tour the Kindergarten and Lower School and meet pupils and staff.
Our Senior Leadership team will also be available for you to speak to at the end of your tour while you enjoy refreshments provided by our catering team.

Register for St Mary’s prep school Colchester
You can register for a Lower School place on our website. A non-refundable registration fee of £150 is also payable at this point.
If you are interested in a place in years other than Reception, we would advise contacting us as early as possible to discuss availability.
Many of the girls who join our Prep (Reception) Class progress from our Kindergarten. As our Kindergarten is very popular, with places often filling up over a year in advance, we would recommend enquiring as early as possible about a place.
