A very warm welcome to all the new families who have their first contact with our school.  We aim to work in partnership with you.  Your feeling of belonging is important to us.  Please let yourself be known to others and assimilate smoothly into our community. 

At St Mary’s School we will be a place where we live by the teachings and values of Jesus Christ.  Here you will develop a passion for learning through quality teaching and a balanced yet diverse range of learning experiences.  Within our caring and nurturing atmosphere, values are taught and lived, and a concern for others is expected.  We encourage and foster a love of learning and strive for excellence within a quality learning environment.
