🎭📚✨ National Poetry Day 2026 ✨📚🎭
This morning, we celebrated National Poetry Day with a fantastic whole-school assembly, and what a performance it was! 🌟
Each year group took to the stage to perform a poem they had been rehearsing during their drama sessions. From wonderful expression and clear voices to brilliant actions and confident performances, our children absolutely brought the words to life! 🎤👏 Their fantastic oracy skills were on full display and we were so proud of every single performer. ❤️
Our poetry line-up was:
❤️✨ Year 1 – All of Me
🦉🐱 Year 2 – The Owl and the Pussycat
🌿🐞 Year 3 – Nature Trail
🐉✨ Year 4 – The Tale of Custard the Dragon
🎉🗣️ Year 5 – The Word Party
⚠️📜 Year 6 – A Cautionary Verse
A huge well done to all of our poetry superstars! 🌟 What a brilliant way to celebrate the joy of poetry, performance and spoken language across St Mary’s. 🎬🎭📖

A huge congratulations to our amazing Year 4 children who have been working incredibly hard competing in the Emile Education Multiplication Tables Check Cup! The children have been putting their times table knowledge to the test, answering multiplication questions against the clock and competing against 23 schools in our regional heat.
Their hard work and determination have certainly paid off… we won our regional heat and are through to the NATIONAL FINALS! 🎉👏
We are so proud of you, Year 4 – what an achievement! Now, bring on the finals! #mathsstm #year4stm … See MoreSee Less

Year 4 explored the value of digits in thousands, hundreds, tens and ones today. The children used place value grids and counters to represent different numbers and identify the value of each digit. This practical approach helped to strengthen their understanding of how numbers are composed and how a digit’s value changes depending on its position. #year4stm #mathsstm … See MoreSee Less

A huge thank you to our former pupil, Harry Hughes, for taking the time to visit our school and inspire our children. As a child, Harry was told he would never be able to kick a football because of his visual impairment. He proved just how wrong that prediction was by playing in the FA Disability Cup Final, live on TNT Sports, and helping his team become the first partially sighted team in history to win the quadruple. 🤩
Harry’s journey is a powerful reminder that determination and resilience can overcome incredible challenges, and he is a truly inspirational role model for our children. We are so proud of everything he has achieved and wish him every success in the future. 💪🏼⚽️ #year4stm #year3stm #year2stm #year1stm #pestm … See MoreSee Less

🚴♀️ Bikeability Success! 🚴♂️
Our Year 4 children have had a fantastic two days taking part in Bikeability on Thursday and Friday!
Some of the children completed the Learn to Ride course. It was amazing to watch their progress as they started the week lacking confidence on their bikes and finished by confidently riding around the playground with huge smiles on their faces. We couldn’t be prouder of everything they achieved.
The rest of the children took part in the Level 1 Bikeability course where they developed their cycling skills and learned how to ride safely and confidently.
A huge thank you to the Bikeability instructors who were so knowledgeable, patient and encouraging throughout the two days. Their support helped every child grow in confidence while having lots of fun.
Well done, Year 4! You have all been fantastic and should be very proud of yourselves. 🌟🚲
