• Y6 Welcome our New Reception Class Children to our School Family

  Fri 29 Sep 2023

  Today our Y6 pupils welcomed our new Reception Class children and their parents to our school community in a lovely Special Friends Assembly.  Our Y6 children have been paired up with a reception class child and have been given the responsibility for supporting them to settle into our school and learn our St Mary's ways.  We know our Y6 children will be amazing role-models and fulfil the role brilliantly.

• House Teams

  Fri 29 Sep 2023 J. MacDonald

  At St Mary's the children are allocated a House Team when they enter our Reception Class. They are part of this house throughout their time with us. The houses are made up of children from each class in school and is a great opportunity for children to support each other. The houses are named after local saints. The children gain house points throughout the year through hard work, living out their values, through sports and play. Each half term the winning house receives a reward with their house teacher. We even compete for the House Cup at Sports Day.

  Last week the children came together to create art, prayers and mottos for their houses. They spent the morning learning about their house saint and discussing what it means to be a part of that house.
