Well done to our year 5 and 6 children that took part in a develop basketball event hosted by NELSSP with the help of Phoenix Basketball club. Children gave it their all and definitely displayed great teamwork and sportsmanship. Thank you to the teachers for attending and the children’s parents / carers for supporting.

Some of our year 3 and 4 children took part in the Welholme Trophy football event. We may not have placed and we played against some great well-established teams, but they certainly had fun. Well done to all of you, you did St Mary’s proud

Some of our Year 2 children attended the Quad Kids Athletic Event at King George Stadium on 6^th July. The competition included run, jump and throwing. They had a great time and represented our school very well. Thank you too Mrs Solomou, Mrs Szlapanska and Mrs Ballard for taking the children to the event.

QuadKids has been a major part of the school’s athletics in Primary & Secondary schools across the country for the last 15 years. Hundreds of thousands of children have competed either in intra-school / inter-school competitions or much larger events at the School Games.

What a week for some of our Year 6 children!

The Briars Retreat welcomed and looked after us beyond expectations! From 8am to 9:30pm, our days were filled with activities and group sessions. The dining room would be filled with chatter as we shared our thoughts for the day, while spoilt for choice on the selection of foods available- kiwi fruits seemed to be a popular choice! We would start our day with the morning prayer and end it with our night prayer-acknowledging the ‘Our Father’ in sign language! They improved with the room inspections, with room 5 being a clear winner with 38 points! Thank you to all of the team at Briars!

Also a very huge congratulation to the year 6 children for their outstanding engagement and behaviour throughout the trip and not forgetting a big Thank you to Mrs Ballard, Miss Magalhaes and Mrs Szlapanska for taking the children.
