Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
Health and Safety Update - The use of Protective Playing Equipment
Mr Harding joined our year 6 pupils on the 22nd September to dissect a heart. The children, in Science, are learning about the circulatory system so they enjoyed got some hands on experience with Mr Harding from Cardinal Allen High School to support their understanding of the how the heart works and what it looks like.
The children in Garrido Class (Year 3/4) attended Mass with Mr Gregory, Mrs Griffin and Mrs Sewell. It was lovely to take the children now they are in the juniors, but also after the Covid restrictions and churches being closed, it was lovely to return.
Today, the children from KS2 and staff from school stood on London Street to pay their respects to Mrs Lofthouse and her family as the funeral procession passed by school. Mrs Lofthouse worked hard to support Fleetwood and it was lovely to see the community, including our school, come together to say thank you to her and show her family we are thinking of them.
All parents - please be aware that at the present time we are having some difficulties with the main school telephone line. We are working to find a solution for this. In the meanwhile if you wish to speak to the school office please send us a message via the school app or email us on bursar@st-marys-fleetwood.lancs.sch.uk.
If you wish to speak directly to your child's teacher please contact them via dojo as usual.
Many thanks.
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.
