Oral Health Workshops

26/1/2023

 
Did you know that the number one reason for admission to hospital in primary school children is tooth decay?

St. Mary's had a visit from the Dental Unit at King's College Hospital to help educate our children more about the importance of good dental hygiene. There was a puppet show for nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 where the children learned how to brush their teeth well.
Years 4 and 6 also had class workshops to understand more about teeth and the important part they play in our general health. Many assume that bones are the hardest substance in the body, but that’s not the case. It’s actually teeth! Comprised of over 96% of minerals, teeth are even harder than bones!

Remember that NHS Dental treatment is free for all children under 18, so it is important to get regular check-ups at the dentist and ensure your children brush their teeth with a fluoride toothpaste twice a day.

All of the children from Year 1 to Year 6 enjoyed a special Christmas treat as we travelled to Greenwich Theatre for an exciting performance of 'Robin Hood'.

Children's Faith Group develop our Spiritual Corners

11/11/2022

 
The children in our Faith Group met and decided to review the Spiritual Corners, which are a space for peace, prayer and reflection in every classroom. They carried out a survey in their class to ensure that every pupil's voice was captured. Next, they added new artefacts to the Spiritual Corners. Finally, they took cuttings from a spider plant to create a new plant for each class.

Times Table Challenge

11/11/2022

 
Congratulations to all of our children who practised hard, learnt their times table facts and took part in their class heats. 2 finalists from each class battled it out in front of the whole school to find our 2022 champions!
