Wishing all of our families, past and present and our wonderful wider school community, a very Happy Christmas. For the majority of our children this is a really wonderful and special time and it has been lovely  to be part of their Christmas celebrations at the end of term. We are also thinking and praying for those families who are also struggling or dealing with challenges. 

We look forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday January 7th.

The after eight game is one of the most popular games at St Mary's.  Each picture would make a great caption competition.  Happy Christmas everyone.
