Our Vision

To be a learning community that promotes the unique gifts, wellbeing and potential of every person. Our work is founded on the life and teaching of Jesus Christ, building on His message of equality, peace and justice, guided by His words,
“As I have loved you, so you must love one another.” John 13:34

Our Mission Statement

St Mary’s school serves our community by providing the highest quality of education and experiences so everyone can achieve their full potential. Faith is at the heart of our life together which celebrates our diversity.
​​Christian values unite and guide our community in love, peace, respect, forgiveness, responsibility and faith.
In December 2018 the school renewed their School Vision, supported by 6 Christian Values, which lies at the heart of all that they do, guiding all members of the School Community on their life-long learning journey. 

St Mary’s held a special School Worship on Wednesday 5th December to bless their renewed School Vision. We also celebrated the opening of our Community Hub. 

The children and staff were joined at this memorable event by parents, school Governors and special guests, including the Young Mayor of Lewisham Adam Abdullah, Angela Scattergood the Lewisham Assistant Director of Education Services and Marcus Cooper, Southwark Diocesan Board of Education Primary Adviser.  Father Steve Hall and Father Steffan Mathias from the School’s Mother Church led the worship.

The Vision is founded on the life and teaching of Jesus Christ and the worship included music, beautifully sung by the children and Bible readings that focused on the coming of Jesus and his message of Peace at this reflective time of Advent.  A film featuring the children was shown, which demonstrated the School Vision in action every day throughout the School Community, before Father Steve blessed the Vision. You can watch the video above.
