4th February 2019 Dear Parents and Carers, World Book Day 2019 takes place on Thursday 7th March. To celebrate the reading achievements of the children in St. Mary’s on the Hill, we invite all pupils to dress up as a favourite book character on this date. There will be lots of fun-filled activities, Accelerated Reader quizzes and story-sharing sessions for the children to take part in. Each child will receive a £1 book token, which is valid from 28th February – 31st March. It can be redeemed in participating bookshops against any book costing £2.99 or more, or exchanged for a special 2019 World Book Day book. This year, we want to spread the word about the importance of sharing stories for just 10 minutes a day – anywhere, anytime! Over the coming weeks, a story-sharing challenge will be sent home for you and your child to complete – Have fun! Many Thanks for your continued support. Happy reading! Yours Faithfully, Mrs B. Niblock Literacy Co-ordinator

Our curriculum promotes children's self-esteem by concentrating on activities and learning experiences which encourage confidence, curiosity and creativity.
St. Mary’s on the Hill is a Catholic maintained, co-educational primary school, where the child is at the centre of everything we do. We are a happy, caring school that works in partnership with all our parents and the parish community to ensure that our children make the most of their potential in academic, religious and personal development.
