Work together; Succeed together
At St Mary’s, we believe that a true sense of belonging is the foundation for success. Every student is valued, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential. We foster a welcoming and inclusive community where everyone feels respected, safe, and empowered to contribute. Our shared values and strong relationships create an environment where students grow in confidence, develop lasting friendships, and take pride in being part of the St Mary’s family.
St Mary's Catholic College welcomes all families who support our values. Our school is rooted in Catholic values which permeate all aspects of work and relationships. Our Chapel is at the heart of the school, placing Christ at the centre of everything that we do. St Mary's Catholic College is a community of service guiding young people on a path to opportunity, aspiration and reward, founded on Catholic values.
We encourage all our students to enrich their learning with extra-curricular activities. We currently offer: Athletics, Badminton, Basketball, Bible Club, Boxing, Breakfast Club, Chess Club, Choir, Debate Team, Duke of Edinburgh, Fitness, Football, Homework Club, House Drama, Judo, Maths Club, Music Lessons, Netball, Rugby, Sixth Form Study, Spoken Word, STEM Group (Science), Table Tennis and Trampoline.
St Mary's Catholic College, Literacy is at the heart of everything we do. We therefore offer students a wide range of stimulating ways to develop their ability to speak, read and write effectively. From a well-stocked Library to a range of high-quality interventions and our very own School Poet, we strive to help our students to gain Literacy skills that will enable them to thrive throughout their lives.
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.

Theme of the week: Christ the King. In this week’s Gospel, Jesus is on the cross while those around Him mock and challenge Him. Yet even in this moment, He reveals the true meaning of Kingship, not power, status, or popularity, but love, mercy, and forgiveness. When the criminal beside Him asks for help, Jesus responds with compassion and promises him a place in His Kingdom. 💛
As we celebrate Christ the King, we remember that Jesus is a King who understands our struggles and walks with us through them. This feast reminds our young people that His Kingdom is built through courage, kindness, and choosing what is right, even when it’s difficult. May we accept Jesus’ invitation to help build His Kingdom on earth by bringing hope, justice, and love into the world around us. 🌍✨
Our Year 7 pupils have started exploring New Brighton’s beautiful coastline to inspire their upcoming ceramic designs. They’ve begun sketching local features and gathering ideas they’ll continue developing over the next few lessons. We can’t wait to see their creativity unfold! 🌟
Over 60 of our Year 10 students braved the cold today for a long walk to the Floral Pavilion, where they watched a fantastic musical adaptation of A Christmas Carol. 🎭 They thoroughly enjoyed the performance and are now excited to begin studying the original text next week! 📚🎄
