The Chapel renovation is currently underway and will be completed in December.

As part of the refurbishment of our much-loved school Chapel, we are carefully restoring the original pews and installing additional pews at the rear of Chapel.


Designed in 1896 and dedicated to our founder Mrs Maclaren, the Chapel of St Nicholas has always been at the heart of life at Summer Fields, both physically and spiritually.
 
A unique opportunity exists to name a Chapel pew and commemorate your friends, family and fellow Old Summerfieldians. 

For more information, please get in touch
