Work together; Succeed together
These core values have very much been created by all members of our school community. Respect, Courage and Pride came through as Values that staff feel are important to define us a community, Students overwhelmingly selected the term Determination and parents very much suggested Compassion as a core value.
Courage
Courage is about stepping out of our comfort zones and facing challenges with confidence. It means speaking up for what is right, taking risks in our learning, and being resilient when faced with setbacks.

Last Tuesday, the Dance Department took a group of talented dancers to perform at the Wirral Dance Festival at the Floral Pavilion. What another fantastic opportunity to showcase their skills and technique on a professional stage! Our dancers did themselves and St Mary’s proud, performing with confidence, professionalism, and incredible energy throughout. The Dance Department is extremely proud of every single performer, and especially our Year 11 dancers, who took to the stage for the last time representing St Mary’s.
Thank you for your commitment, passion, and dedication over the years. You have been fantastic role models and have left a lasting legacy within the department.
Well done to all of you - you absolutely smashed it! 💃🕺⭐️

Today, our Year 10 WJEC Sport students enjoyed a fantastic reward trip to Hype Footgolf in New Brighton! This trip recognised their outstanding attitude to learning throughout the academic year and celebrated the excellent effort they have put into their coursework. Every student has either achieved their target grade or is currently performing above it - an achievement they should all be incredibly proud of.

To round off the day, it all came down to a dramatic play-off between Mr Caul and Mr Everall to crown the PE staff champion, with all of the students gathered to cheer them on!
