Welcome to St Mary’s Primary School
A Prehistoric Adventure! Today, Y3 enjoyed a fascinating visit from Jersey Heritage, where we explored a range of fossils, including an incredible Megalodon tooth and a real piece of a T-Rex! The children also learned about the different types of rocks found in Jersey and discovered how these help us understand the island's history. A fantastic hands-on experience that brought our science learning to life!
What a fantastic effort from our children at the cross country today! They ran with such spirit, determination and enthusiasm, giving it their all in what were tough races with so many children taking part. It was brilliant to see them enjoying themselves, supporting each other and showing such a positive attitude from start to finish. A really great afternoon well done everyone!
We had a visit from the Science Explorer Dome today. Years 1-3 enjoyed finding out about Space. Year 4 revised their work on Light, and Year 5 revisited their Digestion topic! We all had a lot of fun!
Years 5 and 6 have been learning to skateboard. What a great opportunity!
Well done, everyone! A smooth election process. Now we have the counting of the votes... Election results later today... (or early tomorrow!)
A plea for volunteers to get involved in The Battle of Flowers for the St Ouen's and St Mary's float. It looks like great fun!
It's Democracy Week! We started the week with an interactive assembly, and each class's candidates spoke about their manifestos and why they would be the best choice to represent their year group on the school council. Today we have the elections. We went to the Parish Hall where our candidates greeted the voters, and we all went through the process of signing in with the election officials, voting in the voting booths and dropping our ballot papers in the voting boxes... Now we have a short wait to find out who has been elected, but in the meantime a hearty well done to everyone who stood for election. It's a courageous thing to do, and with 48 candidates overall, it shows how passionate our children are about having a voice and making a difference.
And... our last pictures of our fabulous year 6s as they leave us for their secondary schools. You are already fantastic ambassadors for St Mary's School! We will miss you, but we know you're ready to fly.
Year Six made themselves a delicious leavers afternoon tea in the last week of term.
Before the end of term I chanced upon this lesson on pollination! Mrs Webb took her inspiration from a bee birthday balloon and turned it into an interactive lesson! Great fun!
Year 6 had the breakfast of champions down at Greve De Lecq after a brisk swim this morning.
We had a lovely morning today! World Cup teams competed in our mixed year group Sports Day. The children took part either enthusiasm and the watching crowd were lovely and supportive! A great time was had by all. And the winner..? Morocco! Well done, one and all!
