Observatory or what?

The white building that has appeared close to the pond has been causing the pupils to wonder what it is.  From a natural composting outside loo to the caretaker’s hut suggestions have been coming thick and fast.  It is in fact a small observatory which will house a powerful telescope.  Watch this blog for photographs.

We make a difference!

We are on the list of the 518 schools recognised for adding value to students’ achievements in last year’s GCSE results.

CINEMA at St Marys!!

Well the cameras have rolled and the popcorn has been eaten and we have successfully brought the big screen to Ludgwardine. Casino Royale was the show and everyone who came along left with smiling faces indicating that they had enjoyed themselves. The new equipment went down a storm it was like being at the cinema truly.
During the interval everyone had time to catch up with their friends and refresh themselves and the whole evening went really quickly. As a new event we were unsure how it would be received and if anyone would turn up.
Yes they did and a healthy £307.04net was raised which of course will go to supporting the school 100%. We would like to have some more shows. The question is what shall we show? Now I know that we can not please all the people all of the time but if anyone would like to suggest a good film that would appeal to an audience please let the PTFA/School know and we will see what we can do. A huge thank you to everyone who support this event and look forward to your continued support.

Many thanks
