✏️🖍️ The Day the Crayons Quit 🖍️✏️
Before half term, each class focused on the text The Day the Crayons Quit by Drew Daywalt. Inspired by the book, the children wrote a letter from the perspective of an item they either overuse or underuse. Today in assembly, an author from each class shared their published piece. From tablets to skates, these personified items had truly had enough.

We were blown away by not only the amazing writing but also the fabulous storytelling – we were on the edge of our seats. A huge congratulations to our budding authors. We are so proud of you.

Check out their fantastic stories below!

This week, Year 3 used a range of sketching skills to do some observational drawing of pieces of fruit. They focused on detail and shading to capture the details during their art lesson. We were so impressed! #year3stm #artstm See MoreSee Less

✨ Thank you so much to all the brilliant parents and children who took part in our Lower Key Stage Two Reading Workshop at St Mary’s! 📚💫

We loved spending time together exploring:
• Creative ways to deepen understanding while reading
• Techniques to build fluency and confidence
• Ideas to inspire a lasting love of books
• How reading is supported across St Mary’s
• Simple, effective ways to encourage reading at home

It was inspiring to see such passion for books and stories! By working together, we’re helping every child discover the joy of reading and the confidence it brings. ❤️

🌟Year 3 Catholic Life Pledge – Learning Block One🌟

Year 3's first Catholic Life Pledge has centered around CAFOD's Family Fast Day 2025.

This is an initiative that reoccurs every harvest time and the aim is to stand in solidarity with our global family. The children swapped one of their main meals for a simple bowl of soup in order to think about and raise awareness for those throughout the world who regularly go without food. Put so beautifully by our own Archbishop Bernard: 'We are called to live more simply so that others can simply live.'

To find out more about Family Fast Day and to donate to CAFOD's appeal please click on the following link: cafod.org.uk/give/appeals/family-fast-day-appeal?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=R1…

'Helping the poor is a matter of justice before a question of charity.' – Pope Leo XIV

Thank you children and families for all of your efforts!
