Welcome to our first edition of St Augustine’s Magazine for Pupils, or STAMP written by students for students. Despite the apparent joyful, bubbly and exuberant character of this edition, in reality it is panic, exhaustion and desperation craftily disguised by us, the editors. It has provided us with a unique opportunity to celebrate the experiences, achievements and lassitude of students whilst hopefully creating an alternative perspective to content produced by ‘school’. We have had the great joy of discovering and writing in a variety of alternative styles, some of which came naturally like a duck to water, while others took many an hour sat staring in a void manner at a blank word document. A feeling to which we can all relate.

However, we have aimed to provide a reading experience that resembles none of the above, but instead leaves you feeling entertained, educated, or at least provides a brief means of quality procrastination.

Please let us know if you have any feedback!

Editors: Isobel Dignum, Ciara Fagan, Nicole Micheli, Lexi Scott and Sadie Pitcher
