On behalf of all the children, staff and governors, I would like to warmly welcome you to St Mary's Catholic Primary School. We are a friendly, caring school with high expectations for all our pupils and we aim to work with parents, carers and the wider community to ensure the best for all our children. Our school is situated within the parish of St Mary of the Rosary, Forest Hall. As a Catholic school, we celebrate God's presence in our lives and the uniqueness of each individual child ensuring we are living out our vision of 'Living, learning and caring together with God beside us'.
We hope this website gives our parents, carers and prospective parents an insight into the life of our busy, friendly and vibrant school. If you require any further information or wish to visit, please feel free to contact the school.
