• SMGXFT Final

  Fri 20 Jul 2018 Mrs Hall

  What talented children we have at St Mary's! After multiple rounds of auditions and semi-finals all week, the two finalists showcased their performances for us all this morning. Children then returned to class to vote before returning to the hall for the big announcement. Despite an Oscar-like mishap with the announcement, the winner is....our very own little Annie! Congratulations! 

   

  Thank you Miss McKinlay for organising and running this year's shows.

  

• More Goodbyes!

  Fri 20 Jul 2018 Mrs Hall

  Today, we sadly had to say more goodbyes:

  Jude from Reception is moving on to his new school and we hope he will settle in and have lots of fun. Miss Moyà is also leaving. She has been a most lovely, caring person and we wish her well in her future roles. Finally, we say goodbye to Mr Kirby who leaves to take up his new role in Gilmour Junior School. Who'd have thought that the fresh-faced TA who started 9 years ago would leave us? He was treated to a specially written song from Eden - well done! Thank you for all of your sporting prowess! Congratulations Mr Kirby and we wish you well. 

   

  Finally, we say goodbye to our Year 6 children. Thank you for all you have brought get to St Mary's and we wish you well on your onward journey to secondary school. She them what you are made of and remember to come back and visit when you can.

  

• Goodbye Mrs Bell

  Thu 19 Jul 2018 Mrs Hall
  It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to Mrs Bell today. She has taught at St Mary's since 1993 in both KS1 and KS2. Mrs Bell has been a fierce advocate of Reading and has worked intensely with children on the Reading Recovery programme. She will be sadly missed and we hope she comes to visit us when she is able. Thank you for all you have done for St Mary's, Mrs Bell.

• Aspirations Day

  Mon 02 Jul 2018 Mrs Hall

  What an excting day! We have had a wide variety of visitors today from a broad range of careers to talk to us for our Aspirations Day. We played 'Guess Who' with some of our visitors before having sessions in class to find out more about their jobs. 

   

  This afternoon, Key Stage 2 have been having a Careers Fair where they had to write and ask questions to find out more about their possible future careers.

   

  Thank you to all the parents and visitors who gave up their time to come and talk to us - the children thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you also to Miss Turpin for all of the hard work she has put in to organise the day.
