About the school [1] [3]
Habs Girls’ Junior is in Elstree, Hertfordshire, for girls aged 4–11. Single-sex lessons are complemented by music, sport and enquiry activities with the Girls’ Senior School and neighbouring Boys’ Prep. Forest School and outdoor spaces extend learning beyond the classroom.
Progression to the Senior School [1] [2] [4]
