At St Mary’s, all of our Year 6 children are expected to be positive role models. They are entrusted with additional responsibilities that recognise their growing independence and give them opportunities to support and guide younger pupils. They play a vital part in the day-to-day life of the school and exemplify our values by truly “shining brighter and brighter.”
