• Stephen Twigg

  Thu 17 Oct 2013
  Stephen Twigg, M.P. for West Derby visited St. Mary's today. He had a chat with Mrs Thomson and Mrs Armstrong before taking a tour of the school when he met with some of our School Council. Mr Twigg is a familiar figure in West Derby and some of the children enjoyed chatting to him, having met him on previous occasions. He visited each classroom and was interested to hear the children talking about their own knowledge of what an M.P. does and where they work. We had a few interesting answers! We hope Mr Twigg will come to visit us again. Well done to our Class 6 photographer for capturing photos of the event.

  

• A VERY Special Visitor!

  Fri 11 Oct 2013

  St Mary's received a very special visitor today - Jamie Carragher!!! Jamie was invited in to talk to Class 6 about working hard to have a healthy body and healthy mind. This was a huge surprise for the children who were very starstruck - not as much as some of the staff though!
  
  Thank you to Jamie for sparing us the time from his busy schedule. Thank you also to his brother-in-law and Mr Wood for their help in organising this.

• North Liverpool Foodbank

  Thu 10 Oct 2013

  On 9^th October, School Council members from Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 visited the St. Andrew’s Community Centre Food Bank.
   
  With a plentiful amount of food donated by the families of St. Mary’s Primary School, our trip to the food bank gave us a great opportunity to show our generosity and support for such a wonderful cause.
   
  Indeed, our Harvest celebration earlier that morning gave us great reason to realise the importance of sharing the benefits that can be reaped during Harvest Season.
   
  Eventually, our minibus was ladened with Harvest goods and the School Council members were off to St. Andrew’s Community Centre Food Bank to share our wonderful collection of food.
   
  Upon arriving, it took our team (of nine children) ten minutes to eventually stack our food parcels safely into the Community Centre. We were then given the chance to explore the inner workings of the food bank and see how our food would eventually be used to help those who are in need. 
   
  Shelves upon shelves were stacked with foods, toiletries, drinks, condiments, clothes and other important cooking items. Yet we were soon told, that even all this wasn’t enough to feed the thousands of people who use this food bank and its eight other North Liverpool centres.
   
  It really made us appreciate the hard work that the volunteers and workers at the centre put into this food bank. It us also gave us an idea of how hard it would be to work at those times of the year when food and giving is most crucial to those in need; Christmas time and winter.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

  Our most poignant time at the centre was when we were shown to the ‘What Our Clients Say’ wall. A wall that was dedicated to comments left behind by those who need and use the food bank.
   
  On our way back from the Centre, the children of the School Council decided that it might be possible to further continue our support for the food bank.
   
  We hope to come together again to generate some ideas on how we can, once again, help those less fortunate than ourselves
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

  

• Harvest Time

  Thu 10 Oct 2013
  Thanks to everyone who gave so generously to support our harvest appeal for the North Liverpool food bank. After our Harvest service led by Year Six, junior members of our School Council visited the Foodbank to deliver our contributions. They were greatly impressed by the organisation and were very pleased to be shown around by one of our mums, Vicky, who works there.
                  Thanks also go to Mr Walker and to Mr Kelly who gave up their lunchtimes in order to take the children of the council to deliver the food.
