Description

St Bernard's Catholic Grammar School, Slough is a State Secondary School for kids aged 11 to 18 (Gender - Mixed)

In 1897, a group of Bernardine Cistercian Sisters arrived in Slough from France, to escape from religious persecution. They had found a house in Langley they thought might be suitable for a school. It was called Aldin House and had been built by Baroness Coutts, one of Queen Victoria’s ladies in waiting, in the 1860s. She never lived in it and sold it to the Reverend J Hawtrey who used the building as a Prep school for Eton College. He added the chapel and when he sold it in 1884, it was taken over by a Jesuit Community who lived there until 1890, from when it lay empty until the sisters arrived in July1897. At St Bernard’s School, students are educated in a nurturing community where each person is loved and valued. They aim to follow the example of the Bernardine Sisters in having prayer and worship at the centre of the lives. With God as the shelter, they strive to be of service to others and uphold the Christian values of love, forgiveness and compassion that Jesus taught them.
