Many thanks to everyone for their donations to Red Nose Day -We raised around £180 by enjoying a Red Nose Run. and some delicious cakes!
A huge thank you for your donations – plenty of interesting hats as you will see in the pictures. We raised £153.00 with some more cakes to sell on Monday!
At the Christmas fair the school choir entertained parents with a selection of carols and Christmas songs. Many thanks to the Friends of St Mary’s for organising the event.
Year 5 invited their parents into school this morning for a cup of tea and to hear about the work they have been doing about the current World Refugee Crisis.
It was an extremely successful morning with lots of information shared, tea drunk, cakes eaten and money donated!
Year 4 helped to sell the remaining cakes after school.
A big thank you to all the staff and to the FoSM for making Bedtime Stories such an enjoyable evening for both the children and parents. The children were treated to stories and hot chocolate in their classrooms (teddies too!) whilst the parents listened to a talk about reading and vocabulary development and browsed the book fair in the hall. We are hoping that we will have made a good profit from the sale – we use all of the cash raised to replace books in the school library.
Thirty children from years 5 and 6 enjoyed joining together with a group of pupils from St Mark’s School for an afternoon of singing at St Mary’s Parish Church. David Fawcett led them through a singing workshop and the children then took part in a service of Compline which parents came to share.
What an amazing turn-out for the great St Mary’s Bake Off, with children from all classes frantically decorating cakes at playtime and lunch time. Congratulations to the organizers for their money-raising idea and to the proud winners. Many thanks to all who took part and those at home who supported them.
