Educational Visits

At St Mary's, we love an educational visit, as it puts learning into context and really brings learning to life. Each class will go on an educational visit each term which may be topic, RE or PE related. Prior to each visit, parents will be given notice to give us permission to take their child, then a risk assessment will be performed by the lead teacher and an itinerary will be produced. We take children out on local educational visits and we do not seek separate permission for, such as visiting the local library, Ruskin Park, taking the choir to local care homes and visiting St. Mary's church. Key Stage 2 pupils also attend Zest for swimming lessons. 

We visit: Weston Park Museum, The Millennium Gallery, Creswell Crags, Crucial Crew, Sheffield Theatre, Sheffield Cathedral, The Living Sea Centre, Flamborough, National Video Game Museum, Yorvik Viking Centre, The National Emergency Fire Museum, Yorkshire Wildlife Park, Treak Cliff Cavern, Tower of London,  Grimm and Co, Kelham Island Museum and Science and Industry Museum. 

Residential Visits

Each year Key Stage Two pupils have the option to attend a fun filled residential visit which helps to develop pupil's teambuilding, cooperation and independence skills, but also to give pupils the opportunities to experience leaving their comfort zone and to take risks.

Our residential visit is to The Oakes. 

We have one residential visit each year and all pupils in Key Stage Two have the opportunity to attend.
