Parish and Community
Our Parish Community
"So in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others". Romans 12:4–5
St Mary's Catholic Primary School is situated next to its Parish Church. We are fortunate to have such a wonderful resource.
As a Catholic Primary School we strive to work in partnership with the Home and the Church to initiate the children of the parish into the Catholic faith tradition whilst, at the same time, maintaining the highest aims and expectations within the national education system.
As a part of the Catholic Education System, the school is concerned with the initiation of children into the Catholic faith tradition and their gradual growth and development as knowledgeable and faithful members of the Catholic Church.
The school has a responsibility to nurture and promote the Catholic faith through its programme of Religious Education and the day-to-day organisation and relationships so that the spiritual presence of Jesus Christ is clearly evident to all and His teachings are reflected in every aspect of the total life of the school.
