Welcome
It is a true privilege to be the Headteacher of such a warm, caring and vibrant school community. St Mary’s is a special place, and I am passionate about the work we do each day to help every child thrive.
OAt St Mary’s, we believe that every child is precious, unique, and deeply loved. As a Catholic school, our values are rooted in the teachings of Christ – love, compassion, respect, and service to others. These values guide everything we do and help us create a nurturing environment where all children can grow in confidence, character, and faith.

Our Values
We aim to provide every child with a solid foundation so that they leave our school equipped with the knowledge, skills and attributes that they will need for the next stage of their learning journey, and beyond. We have high expectations and aim to inspire children to have high aspirations for themselves and their future. We seek to provide opportunities for children to develop positive attitudes to learning and key skills such as creativity, resilience, problem solving and independence, skills that they will be able to apply throughout their lives.
As a Catholic school, Christ is at the centre of our community. We are a loving community, where everyone is welcomed and valued equally. We aim to ensure that all children recognise their self-worth, understand that they have a unique contribution to make to the world and value themselves as members of a global family. We provide opportunities for children to use their talents and skills to contribute positively to the school community, and to respond to the needs of the wider world, in order to prepare them to be responsible, caring and active citizens in the world.
Letters
We send out letters and newsletters on a regular basis to keep parents up to date with school decisions and progress.
At St Mary’s, we keep our parents, carers and families informed about upcoming events and celebrations of our children’s successes. Regularly, we publish a newsletter, which is sent out electronically to all of our parents and is made available on this page.
