Our Vision

At  the heart of our community, we serve to embrace lifelong learning through our Christian foundations. We step forward with love in our hearts, peace in our actions and hope in our aspirations. We enable all to; flourish in our diversity of faith and belief, be ambitious and be our unique selves. 

    Our core Christian values have been chosen to reflect our view of the trinity and our wishes for our community. They come from the principles of life that Jesus taught us and are found in God’s words in the Bible. Love, peace and hope underpin daily school life. Through living our core Christian values we aim to be not only a good school but a good church school.

Our values underpin our faith and our everyday lives.

  Links to the Trinity:

       God as the Father gives us unconditional love

       God as the Son bringing the gift of peace to the world

                               God as the Holy Spirit gives us hope, a firm assurance that                              God will always be there for us.

                                  Links to Community:

Love – being nurtured and celebrating differences

Peace – Working and playing together in harmony and respecting our differences

Hope – Aspirations for our future and the future of our community

In reflecting the Church of England’s original purpose, St Mary’s aims to provide both a quality academic grounding and sound moral character, equipping children on their first step to success.

 As a church school we are committed to providing an education to all in our community, regardless of faith. Through our Christian values of love, peace and hope, we grow together in our faith and aspirations in order to live life in all its fullness.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

 Jeremiah 29:11
