At St Mary's School, our Christian Values, Respect, Integrity and Resilience, underpin everything that we do. Children understand how these values help them to be good learners and outstanding citizens enabling them to 'shine as lights in the world'.
This week, the following children have consistently shown one or more of our Christian values in action:
Congratulations to the following children who have consistently demonstrated exemplary behaviour this week:
Today we had the pleasure of taking a staggering 112 shoe boxes to Stoke Mandeville Church. The church wardens were delighted with the amount of boxes, knowing the difference these gifts would make. All the shoe boxes were filled to the brim with toys, personal care items, school supplies, and fun gifts. We needed two cars, and the shoe boxes only just fit in!
Thank you to Miss Bell for organising this, Ria, Pippa and Stan for being great ambassadors for the school and to the school community for your generous donations.
Today, we remember all those who have served our country in a very poignant Year 6 Remembrance Day Collective Worship.
Today, we said goodbye to Mrs Ilyas, who has started her maternity leave. During the assembly, she was presented with gifts, a cake and had a moving speech written for her. The whole school wishes her the best of luck and await news of the baby’s arrival.
Huge congratulations to the following Year 6 children who are our new Sports Captains:
Hawkin: Chloe and Sophie
Nightingale: Louisa and Isadora
Parks: James and Charlie
Winton: Poppy and Alice
Thank you to everyone that applied.
We would like to congratulate and introduce our new Junior Road Safety Officers: Ava, Jarshan, Holly, Lyla, Farida, Dhanvi and Elsie.

This weeks winning house is NIGHTINGALE!
Year 2 had lots of fun exploring and investigating lots of different scientific activities at the Science Museum in Oxford.
Today, Mark from Westcott Space Cluster visited Year 5 to inspire them about space. Mark provided the children with a hands-on experience where the children were able to handle a satellite that went into space. The children saw space food and many more exciting things. The children and staff were captivated!
