Catholic life at St Mary’s Primary School is deeply rooted in the principles of faith, community, and education. Our school fosters a nurturing environment where pupils are encouraged to develop their spiritual, moral, and academic potential. Central to Catholic life at St Mary’s is the celebration of the sacraments, participation in regular Mass, and daily prayer, which help to instil a strong sense of faith and devotion in our pupils.
Our curriculum integrates Catholic teachings and values, promoting an understanding and appreciation of the Catholic faith through Religious Education lessons. Pupils are taught to live out Gospel values such as compassion, service, and justice in their everyday lives. The school community is also dedicated to social outreach and charitable activities, encouraging pupils to engage in acts of kindness and service to others.
Moreover, St Mary’s Primary School emphasises the importance of a supportive and inclusive community. Parents, teachers, and parish members work together to create a welcoming environment that reflects the school’s Catholic identity. Through various school events, liturgical celebrations, and community service projects, pupils learn the importance of friendship and the value of contributing to both the school and the wider community.
