Headteacher's Welcome

A warm welcome to St. Mary’s Church of England Primary School

“ Rise up, take courage and do it” 
 
Ezra 10:4
Proverbs 22.6

It is an absolute privilege to welcome you to the St Mary's school website. Our website will give you just a taste of all the fantastic things that our children experience at St Mary’s! We’re all very proud of our children & school and see ourselves as one big family. The school’s vision statement is ‘To Rise Above The Ordinary’.

At St. Mary’s RISE stands for R = Respect, I = Inspire, S = Support and E = Exceed and this as our golden thread running through everything we do.

We are a church school, a status that we take seriously, and which impacts positively on an ethos which ensures that each individual is treated as special and important within an inclusive community of mutual love and care, where everyone is valued for who they are and where everyone is inspired to reach their full potential.

The children are very proud of their school and we are very proud of our children. They love learning; care for each other and are very respectable of each other and adults. They are our best ambassadors!

While it is my priority that the education your child receives here with us will enable them to achieve their academic potential and progress confidently into the next phrase of their education, it is also part of my vision that all our children are filled with positive experiences, that they are aware of endless possibilities that await them and that they are nurtured, in order to develop within them, a confidence and courageousness to embrace whatever comes their way.
 
If you would like to visit St Mary’s to experience our school first hand, please don’t hesitate to get in touch! We would love to meet you.

Joy Burgess, Headteacher.
