Today, a group of our Year 6’s left for their residential to PGL.  They were all very excited as they left this morning.  Mr Watkins, Mrs Sprackling and Mrs Pugh are supporting all of the children there.

They arrived safely at the centre and enjoyed having a spot of lunch in the sunshine!

On Thursday 20th June, we celebrated the launch of our School Street. It was a brilliant occasion, with games from Sustrans, expert advice about cycling, Bikers’ Breakfast, Dr Bike and a few special guests! Thank you to everyone who came to help us celebrate and a special thanks goes to Mrs Leith who put it all together.

This term, our Year 6 pupils have been creating their own businesses for the Fiver Challenge. They are each given £5 towards the starting costs of their business, which they pay back at the end of the project. The children worked together to develop business plans, including costings and projected income, and then made their dreams become a reality! The businesses were very popular and the profits will be split between a class treat and a charity of the children’s choice.

The Friends of St Mary’s have organised an online auction to raise money for the school.  More items will be added in the coming weeks – the auction ends on 15th July so please make sure you check back. Please have a look!

Our Topic last half term was the Living Things.

To support and extend the children’s learning around this topic, we organised an educational trip to the Floating Classroom located at the Grand Union Canal. The trip took place on Wednesday the 22^nd of May. The session was held on a boat and it was an imaginative, engaging and fun learning experience for the children.

​The children were involved in a hands-on session investigating various plants and creepy crawlies. They  also had a chance to discover the different animals and birds that live around the canal. All children behaved so well and we were so proud of them!

On Wednesday 22nd May, the violinists in Year 3 performed at Lambeth Palace at a special evening performance for the supporters of London Music Masters.

They performed, presented and represented LMM and St Mary’s incredibly. We are very proud of them!
