🌍💚 Year 1 Catholic Life Pledge – Caring for God’s Creation 💚🌍
Our Year 1 children have been putting their Catholic Life Pledge into action by taking part in a litter pick around our school grounds. 🧤🗑️
Through this act of kindness, the children have shown what it means to be good stewards of God’s creation, caring for the beautiful world God has given us. They demonstrated love and compassion by taking responsibility for our environment and helping to keep our school a clean and welcoming place for everyone. 🙏🌱
The children have also created colourful posters to raise awareness among our St Mary’s children about the important part we all play in looking after our environment. They are helping to spread the message that even small actions can make a big difference! 🌼🌎
🇬🇧 Link to British Values – Mutual Respect
This pledge links beautifully to the British Value of Mutual Respect, as the children are learning to respect our shared environment, our school community and the world around us. By working together, they understand that we all have a responsibility to care for the places we share and to show consideration for others, both now and in the future.
We are so proud of our Year 1 children for living out our Catholic values and showing that, together, we can make a difference! 💚✨

👃🍋 Year 1 – Exploring Our Sense of Smell! 🌿🧄
Our Year 1 children have been busy investigating their sense of smell! We used our noses to explore a range of different scents, including lemon, mint, cinnamon, garlic, vinegar and shower gel. 👃✨
The children discovered that some smells were much easier to identify than others! Some scents were familiar straight away, while others had us stopping, sniffing again and thinking carefully about what they could be. 🤔
It was a fantastic opportunity to use our senses, share our ideas and develop our scientific observation skills. We had lots of interesting discussions about which smells we liked, which we didn’t, and how different smells made us feel.
Well done, Year 1, for being such curious little scientists! 🧑‍🔬🌟
