Headteacher's Welcome
Mrs Longstaff
I am extremely proud to be the Executive Headteacher at both St Mary’s CE Primary School and Emmanuel Holcombe CE Primary School, supported by a highly skilled, caring and dedicated team of teachers and support staff.
St Mary’s is a small, Church of England Primary School, nestled in the heart of Hawkshaw Village.
Our vision at St Mary's is rooted in Ephesians (3:17-19)
"I pray that you would be rooted and established in love..........Filled to the measure of the fullness of God"
At St Mary’s we place huge importance on being tolerant, building resilience and developing enquiring minds. We are passionate about providing an education relevant our pupils’ needs, both now, and in the future. The children are at the heart of every decision we make, and all our staff believe there is no limit to what our children can achieve. We strive to provide exciting, creative and meaningful learning experiences, which inspire hope, ignite the imagination and instil a love of life-long learning.
We recognise that children learn best when there are strong links between home and school and so we encourage families to work in partnership with us, to help each child to achieve their full potential.
I hope you enjoy finding out more about our school by browsing our website. Visits to school are encouraged and welcomed: we would be delighted to show you around our school. We also pride ourselves on open communication, so if you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact school.
I look forward to meeting you.
Mrs Longstaff
