Our Vision

Jesus said: “Love one another as I have loved you” (John 15:12)

As we love, we flourish
As we flourish, we aspire
As we aspire, we achieve
Together, we are a family

Love is at the heart of all we do, it brings together our diverse community. We nurture and support everyone in a holistic way promoting academic, spiritual, social, moral and emotional development so that we can all flourish. Through love, we unearth the uniqueness and gifts of each individual so that we can be the people we were intended to be.

Our Values

Our values are at the core of everything we do. They are embedded into the fabric of every aspect of school life, creating a clear and distinctive ethos that underpins every thought, decision and action. Each value is modelled and demonstrated by our work, how we speak and how we behave towards every member of the St Mary’s family. Our expectation is that our children and wider school community demonstrate our values which are common to all faiths and none.

The values to which we aspire are:

Friendship: We build positive relationships and enjoy time together.

Compassion: We see sadness in the world and demonstrate love by showing we care.

Hope: We have aspirations and dreams for the future and know that tomorrow can be even better than today.

Wisdom: Together we learn so that we can better understand the world around us and flourish.

Community: We are connected to God and each other. Together as a family, we know that we belong.

Endurance: To keep trying when things are difficult and have courage to try new things to help us achieve.
