Welcome to St Mary’s Catholic Primary School Website
Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. We hope it will serve as an effective means of communicating the many exciting learning opportunities our pupils experience, as well as providing regular updates for pupils and parents.
We are a Catholic, voluntary aided school, founded in 1933 by the religious of the Sacred Heart of Mary, situated in Hornchurch, Essex, serving the Parish of St Mary, Mother of God.
Our aims and values reflect our mission to discover the God given brilliance in every child and to enable the children to create happy, lifelong memories during their time with us. The development of the whole child is at the centre of our philosophy. Sporting and musical endeavours feature heavily in both our curricular and extra curricular provision. Furthermore, we are very fortunate to have an indoor swimming pool in the centre of our school.
St Mary's adopt a 'Growth Mindset' to our learning and believe that we can achieve anything if we remember to use our 'learning habits' and our favourite word 'YET'. We do not fear making mistakes; we celebrate that every error is an opportunity to learn and improve.
As headteacher, I am very proud to serve the children and staff of our wonderful school and praise God that I have been given this opportunity to be the custodian of this special community. We strive to be Christ like in our interactions with each other and encourage all to be better today than we were yesterday, mindful of the huge privilege we have been given to work with your children.
We hope that you enjoy your visit to our website and that you find any information required. If you have any questions regarding our school, please feel free to pop in and see us.
