Prize Day 25th June 2022


We were delighted that the Upper School was able to gather together to celebrate Prize Day on a glorious, sunny Saturday.

This is always a fantastic occasion to mark an exciting end to a busy and successful year. Not only do we celebrate the achievements of our pupils and say goodbye to our Year 6 girls, but it’s also a wonderful opportunity to inspire pupils for the next academic year.

We are pleased to share Mrs Connor-Earl’s speech which summarises just some of the School’s remarkable achievements from this academic year.

Mrs Connor-Earl 2022 Upper School Prize Day Speech

Welcome to St Mary’s School, Hampstead

Our school strives to nurture an active partnership between home, school, parish, and the wider North London community. Situated in one of London’s most affluent and scenic areas, our school is an excellent choice for families in North London who want their daughters to receive a premier education in a safe, nurturing, and inspiring locale.

“Our St Mary’s Way is the spirit by which we live: to treat other people as you would like to be treated, to do your best to be your best, to be honest and truthful, to listen to each other, to be kind and helpful, to forgive, and to share.”

Charlotte Owen, Headmistress
Pope Francis 1936 - 2025

We give thanks for the life of Pope Francis, who faithfully led the Catholic Church in the spirit of servant leadership, humility, love, and with continual compassion for and alliance with the poor and marginalised.

‘The legacy he leaves is one we must seek to carry forward and strengthen’ – Cardinal Vincent Nichols

May he now rest in peace and rise in glory.
