• Welcoming Mylo - St Mary's school dog

  Thu 04 Feb 2021 Ms Hampson

  This year we are welcoming Mylo, our school dog, into our St Mary's family. Mylo will be completing lots of training to become our school therapy dog and once qualified will be working to support children's social and emotional wellbeing in school through timetabled interventions. He will also be taking part in extra-curricular activities and events when the opportunity arises. 

  To fulfill his role, Mylo will be working closely under the standards of "The School Therapy Dog Association". You can visit their website, www.schooltherapydog.com and see for yourself the high standards that Mylo, the children and the staff will have to meet. He will attend lots of training classes, starting in March, and his trainer will also be visiting school to make sure that he is happy and doing a good job.

  During lockdown though Mylo will be spending lots of time meeting the staff and exploring the school building whilst there's no children around so that he feels comfortable in the school environment. The staff will also be updating their school policies and risk assessments in preparation for his arrival in school. Mylo is really looking forward to meeting everyone but for now you can follow his journey on his Instagram page, Mylos_Moments.

• Early Visit from Mother Christmas and her Elf!

  Mon 04 Nov 2019
  Two lovely visitors came to school this morning! Mother Christmas and her right hand Elf!  They came with news about the upcoming Lantern Parade and chance to win the wonderful 'Sweet Bouquet' which you can see in the photograph.  Raffle tickets will be on sale all this week. The Lantern Parade is taking place on Saturday 17th November - children, under the creative guidance of Mrs Thomas, are busily making individual lanterns in addition to creating a collaborative larger piece that will lead our school during the parade. For further details about the parade and the raffle look out for messages on the Parent App and on the school notice boards.

  

• Harvest Donation

  Fri 11 Oct 2019

  On Wednesday the 9th October, the whole school celebrated Harvest at St Mary's Church.  All of the donations that many of you kindly sent into school were presented to Father Michael and displayed at the front of church.  After the mass, our new Headboy Lucas, Headgirl Molly and Deputies, Kian and Dzhuliya accompanied Mrs Kowalska to take the Harvest gifts to the local food bank.  Mr. Colin Brown (secretary SVP Fleetwood Food Bank) was really happy and very appreciative and sent the following email to acknowledge the kindness and support of our school.

   

  Hello Mrs Kowalska,

   

  On behalf of the SVP Fleetwood Food Bank I would like to thank you, the Staff, children and parents for your support of the Food Bank at this time with your very generous food donation following your recent Harvest Festival. 

   

  Without the very generous support of schools, churches, organisations and individuals we would not be able to provide an average of about 35 food parcels each week which help to feed between 70 and 90 local people, adults and children, who can not afford to put food on their table for whatever reasons, as we do not receive any financial assistance from any statutory organisations and are completely dependant on voluntary donations of food and on some occasions money.

   

  This year so far, with the help of these very generous donations, we have been able to give out over 1100 food parcels which have helped to feed over 1850 adults and over 1375 children a total of more than 3225 persons.

   

  Many thanks once again,
  
  Colin Brown
  Secretary
  SVP Fleetwood Food Bank
