Our Children’s Happiness and Wellbeing Lie at the Heart of Everything We Do

At All Hallows we believe we are doing something very distinctive: our children's happiness and wellbeing underpin everything we do and everything else flows from that.

As a result of our approach, from our nursery to the 'top of the tree', our girls and boys develop into something very special - children who love learning, give their very best and know who they are.

Outstanding opportunities lie both inside and outside the classroom - passionate and engaging class teaching drives our academic life, as well as outdoor learning in our nine-acre Forest School, an extensive Sports programme and a state of the art Creative Centre for Art and Design.

Do come and visit us to find out more...
We look forward to welcoming you and your children.

A Warm Welcome From Me

I hope you can see from our website and ethos that we are unique and inclusive Somerset Prep-School, where pupils, parents, and staff alike, feel they truly belong.

Our children’s happiness and wellbeing underpin everything we do, and our pupils feel they belong. Believing that the different aspects of a child’s life are mutually reinforcing, working in partnership with parents we aim to develop the whole child emotionally, creatively, intellectually, socially, and spiritually.

Year 6

I absolutely love playing rugby at my school in Year 6! It’s so much fun running around the field with my friends, passing the ball, and scoring tries. The thrill of the game and the camaraderie with my teammates make every practice and match exciting.
