Welcome to The Manor!

Here at The Manor there is a wonderfully happy, creative atmosphere. The exceptionally caring and invigorating tone of the school ensures that children really do beam with happiness: they are delightfully self-confident and articulate. Laughter is an essential part of the school day in our community where children are both cherished and challenged.

With a fine Georgian manor building at its heart, and set in extensive grounds on the outskirts of Abingdon, our school has a wide range of award-winning purpose built classrooms and enviable specialist facilities. We have dedicated and professional staff supported by an enthusiastic and committed Board of Governors. The warm-hearted ethos of The Manor is very special indeed: the children really do flourish and are very well prepared - in the widest possible sense - for their future lives.

We would love to tell you more. Please do call us to make an appointment or to find out about our Open Days. I very much look forward to meeting you.

May Day Dancing At The Manor

Well done to all Year 4 girls who danced beautifully on May morning. It was lovely to see the new May Pole in action.

School Ski Trip

On Saturday 29th March, 24 children, parents and staff set off for Meiringen in Switzerland.  We had just a few problems flying out of Heathrow’s Terminal 5 but we did eventually get to our resort although somewhat later than planned!  We then spent a week in Meiringen, not only skiing on fantastic snow, but also swimming, painting cows, visiting a meringue factory, oh, and of course, eating a few meringues on the way!  We all had an amazing time.  It was great fun joining the girls in the ski school lessons, and especially funny when we fell over in the deep snow.  I don’t think the girls will ever forget their time throwing snowballs at Mrs Walker then covering her completely in snow!
The Manor Prep

"Our daughter absolutely adores The Manor and so do we. Not only are the teaching staff excellent, also the administration staff are simply wonderful. It seems to us that nothing is too much trouble for The Manor and they seem to get it just right."
