St Mary's Catholic Primary School

Headteacher's welcome.

Mrs Danielle Douglas.

I feel extremely privileged to be the Headteacher of this wonderful, vibrant school.

Whether you are a current member of our school community or a prospective parent exploring St. Mary’s, we’re delighted to welcome you. We hope you find everything you need to get a sense of what makes our school special.

At St. Mary’s, every decision we make is centred around our children and inspired by Jesus Christ. Guided by the Gospel values, we strive to live these out in all that we do, each and every day.

Our thriving school community is committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment where every child can flourish. We offer an ambitious, creative, and stimulating curriculum that encourages our pupils to reach their full potential, creating well rounded, independent and knowledgeable citizens.

Our ethos — “We love one another through caring and respect” — is lived out daily, fostering a sense of belonging, compassion, and mutual respect. We believe that every child can succeed, and this belief drives our mission.

If you have any further questions after exploring our website, please don’t hesitate to contact the school office.

St Mary’s Vision.

At St Mary’s, we are one loving and inclusive family rooted in the teachings of Jesus. We treat everyone with kindness, respect, forgiveness and compassion so that all feel safe, valued and are celebrated as a unique child of God.

We believe everyone can grow and succeed through hard work, resilience and a positive mindset, trying our best, never giving up, and knowing that mistakes help us learn. We encourage each other to be ambitious, confident and proud of our achievements.

We provide rich life experiences, meaningful challenges and opportunities for collaboration so that our children become confident, connected and optimistic learners.

Together, as Stewards of the Earth, we care for one another, celebrate diversity and look after God’s world. Guided by faith and hope, we strive to make a positive difference in our school, our community and the wider world.
