Our website is designed to keep parents informed of news and developments in school and to introduce new parents to our school community. I am sure it will give an invaluable insight into St Mary’s family and our ethos which puts the child at the heart of all we do.

St Mary’s offers a friendly primary school community for your child to live, learn and grow in God’s love in the heart of Richmond. Here at St Mary’s we provide an inclusive education for all, regardless of ability, gender, race, or religion. We welcome all children and their families. We offer a positive learning environment and believe that our school will make a valuable contribution to children’s development.

St Mary’s is a vibrant school with a friendly atmosphere. Our children are caring, responsible and thoughtful.  As reported by Section 48 inspection (2013) “St Mary’s is a particularly welcoming school whose mission statement “Jesus is at the heart of our school,” is lived out fully.  The children are delightful.  They are proud of their school and appreciate the importance of working together as a team.”

We have a highly dedicated and committed team of staff and governors who are passionate about ensuring children at St Mary’s have a positive and happy experience; make progress in their learning and become confident, successful individuals who want to make a positive contribution to the world around them.

Meet Millie

As a school we are passionate about supporting the wellbeing of our children. We have introduced Millie to St Mary’s and our school community. The value of pet therapy is widely accepted as a powerful aid to communication and motivation. Research has shown that companion dogs can improve the well-being of children, reducing their anxiety levels by making the school environment happier and a more enjoyable place to be.

Our Vision

Empower every child to develop creativity, independence and resilience, becoming confident individuals in a diverse global community.
