From the St Mary's Catholic Infant School
We are a Multi Academy Trust that collaborates with St Mary's Catholic Junior School and St Mary's Catholic Infant School to give the kids in our care the finest education we can. Our schools are dynamic and forward-thinking, with a committed staff and a helpful but demanding Governing Body. We put a lot of effort into making sure that our kids recognise the importance of developing and learning together since we are a learning family. We respect each child as an individual and collaborate together with parents to build faith, love, care, independence, adaptability, tenacity, curiosity, and confidence. We want our children to love learning and so take great care to ensure that our curriculum is exciting, challenging and bursting with awe, wonder and fun. We encourage children to have aspirations because we want them to reach their full potential. They should share our opinion that they are amazing people. Our Catholic Faith is at the heart of everything we do and out Gospel values form the basis of our ethos and the way we reach out to our inclusive St Mary's family. We encourage visits, so if you'd like to learn more about our school, call the office to schedule a visit during one of our open days. I'm eager to introduce myself to you and show you more of our fantastic institutions.
