Welcome children and parents to our Year 1 page! Please ensure you check this page frequently as it will include important information, dates and activities for children to do at home.
We are available at the end of the day if you would like to speak with us about anything. Alternatively you can e-mail the school via office@st-marys.lambeth.sch.uk or call 020 7622 5479.

Children are now allowed to wear their PE kit to school on the days that they have PE. Please ensure your child has the correct PE kit which consists of a white t-shirt, navy shorts and plimsoles or trainers. During the colder weather your child should wear the School PE jumper.
If your child has to attend an event such as Mass or go on a school trip, they will be required to wear their school uniform on that day. PE kit should be brought to school and children will change for their PE lesson accordingly.
If your child has a club before school, uniform should be brought to change into, once the club has finished.
If your child has a club after school and it is not a PE day, uniform should be worn as normal and PE kit should be brought to change into before the club begins.
