About Us
St Mary’s Primary School is situated in the Parish of Melmount. The school opened in 2012 as a result of the amalgamation of St Mary’s Boys’ and St Mary’s Girls’ Primary schools. We have an enrollment of 648 pupils, 596 primary school pupils and 52 nursery pupils. St Mary’s has a long tradition of inclusion and adaptations to the school buildings enable children with disability to attend.
The permanent staff comprises of the Principal, 2 Vice-Principals, 24 teachers and 17 classroom assistants (mainly special needs).
We put very strong emphasis on the three-way partnership between home, school and our parish community. Regular contact between parents and the school is encouraged.
The school operates on a split site, Junior School (Nursery and P1-P4) and the Senior School (P5 – 7). The Junior School has 16 classrooms, a main hall an administration office, a Vice Principal’s and a Principal’s office. It has a purpose built full time self contained Nursery at the back of the building beside two playgrounds and a large grassy area. There are also 4 mobile classrooms beside the playgrounds.
The Senior School comprises of 12 classrooms, main hall, an administration office, a Vice Principal’s and a Principal’s office. Outside we have 3 mobile classrooms, one of which is the music room and one of the others is a staffroom. Another building beside the school playground is used as a canteen and a computer suite. We have one tarmac playground. Both buildings have a school library and a computer suite.
