What success means to us

“When drop-offs are as cheerful as pick-ups, you know you have picked the right school.”

Parent

“Hard to put into words, the magic of St Mary’s is in my daughter’s ebullience and confidence.”

Mandy, Parent

“From a shy introverted 3-year-old, to an articulate, smiling and confident almost nine-year-old… that’s the magic of St Mary’s.”

Parent

“At St Mary’s education is so much more than numbers, letters and statistics; it’s the magic and mayhem of growing up.”

Cricket Success! 🏏 

We were thrilled to win the 3rd annual St. Mary’s Cricket Tournament on Friday, narrowly winning in the final by 15 runs!

The girls showed great team spirit and resilience, and were hugely supportive of each other. Well done and thank you to all schools who were able to join us! 💙
