Our Philosophy
At St Mary's Catholic Primary School we believe that every child deserves the best possible start within the Early Years. We ensure that the children feel safe, secure and happy in order to lay the foundations for good progress through school and life.
We aim to...
Form Positive Relationships
Form a positive relationship with the children in our care through inviting the children into school for induction activities, having the local pre-school attend our Christmas production and sharing our news and achievements within the class.
Provide a Stimulating Environment
Provide a stimulating environment where children can explore, investigate, discuss, think critically and plan through a wide range of adult planned and child iniated activities indoors and outdoors.

Observe and Support
Identify and support the children who require extra support in order to learn and contact the relevant professionals.
Observe the children within their play and collect learning evidence within their learning diary.

Form Partnership with Parents
Form a partnership with parents and carers through a structured induction process, regular parent-teacher meetings, workshops, volunteers within the class and having an open door policy.
