Hi to everyone in class 5c. I am having lots of fun at my new school but i will never get a better school than St Mary's. I have made lots of friends their names are Jordan, Josh, Joseph and Harry. I have a very nice teacher as well. One thing i do not like though is that my mum makes me walk to school everyday!. Hope to see you all soon.

Hi to everyone in 2D. I have got a nice teacher at my new school and some new friends. The dinner ladies make nice food. I have made clay models and shelter models and pictures of early people who lived in England. It will be my birthday in 10 days and i am very excited. Is Mr T excited because we share the same birthday? Hope you are all ok. I am missing Sebastian and Isaac. Has anything changed yet at St Mary's because our new school is very different. Hope to see you all soon. love Billy.

I have had a great time at St Mary's School so far, I have just finished year 3 with Miss Riley, It will seem strange this year as my elder brother Bradley starts High School, I Still have my little sister Lucy, she will be in Mrs Garsides year 1 class. I will be in Mrs Cowie's. I hope this year is as good as the last one.

Hello!
I left St Mary?s in 2004 and it sure has changed since then. It?s nice to see such a cool and easy to navigate website, by the way. I?ve noticed some of the old teachers have left and that others still remain. I?ll always have fond memories of St Mary?s and I?m glad this website is still growing strong.
Keep up the good work!

I love school esspessealy playtimes when we play sports.I like playing cricket because all my mates want to bat and i don'tlet them bat.

hi everyone! its conor here. Hi Ciara!

I have enjoyed my time a st marys school but I wist there was better toilets for 5HO and year 6

hi from the 3 muscateers ps this skool is good

Further to the continuing saga re St Catherine's. I agree completely that the school is being shamelessly manipulated for political ends, and I feel that faith schools' futures are very uncertain under the present regime. While belief is seen as an "unintellectual" pursuit, there will continue to be a snobbishness about faith and faith schools in so-called academic circles. Quite wrong, and in no way serving the best interests of schools or communities. I have no children at your school, but have grandchildren at another faith school nearby. These schools used to be the backbone of our children's moral and educational upbringing and it would be a poorer world if that were no longer the case.

Thank you for your comments.
As you correctly observe St. Catherine's is caught in a mix of local and national events. We support the school becoming a strong Catholic Secondary School for the Calderdale community but note that there is opposition to faith schools in general from a vocal and influential section of decision makers and media. Following the Catholic Church's successful opposition to attempts to further change its schools' Admissions arrangements in May 2006 we are now seeing a backlash in various Local Authorities where the Catholic Schools in temporary difficulties are being put under various pressures and threats.
It is a time to be vigilent and to stand up for a system that supports all round quality and social cohesion through the message and example of Christ.
With best wishes Paul Copley Headteacher

Hi all the peeps from St Mary's. Hows it going for everyone???? Hope everyone is coping with everything. And also it's strange without knowing that Miss Kitson doen't work there anymore *****SHE WAS THE BEST ~~~~~~ but i hope she's enjoying her self
Anyway Bye Peeps
~~~~~p.s Mrs Hinsley is cool!!!!!

Hi there! Me and my brother Chris are ex-pupils of St Marys. Chris left in 1997 and i (Nicholas) left in 2000. After leaving, chris went to Calder high school, and i went to Crossley Heath Grammer school. We've both now moved on to pursue our choice of career. Chris is now training to be an actor at Drama Centre in London, and i'm training to be a dancer at Rambert school, also in London.
It's great to be able to see lots of old friendly faces, we both have lots of great memories from our time at St Marys. We especially like the picture of Mrs Thomas on a quad bike!!
All the best Nick and Chris
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
We are so pleased to hear you have lots of great memories of St. Mary's. I also like the photograph of Mrs Thomas on the quad bike - she looks the part !!! Good luck in your chosen careers. Please do keep us up to date on how you are both getting on.

I have just completed a full term student placement for my child development studies. I thoroughly enjoyed working with the children and teachers in classes 1/2T and 2D. The school provides a stimulating and effective, education facility. Children are made to feel secure and valued, where they extend their knowledge and confidence by the level of teaching delivered. A great place to work, learn and develop both educationally and spiritually. Thanks for your support, will miss you all.
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Thank you for all your hard work Dawn and your kind words and comments. Please do pop in and see us, keep us informed of how your studies are going. Good luck for the future from all at St. Mary's.

Fantastic school website - very creative. The best I have seen so far. It makes the school look like a fun place to learn and work.
Webmaster Mrs Hinsley
Thank you, we are glad you enjoyed surfing our site. We think our school is as you say a fun place to learn and work.

Hi
As a parent without children at St Mary's I was looking for SATs results / Ofstead report on the website but couldn't find them.

A was on a placement recently for my Health and Social care visit, which was very helpful because it gave me the information I very much needed, which helped me to finish my first piece of coursework. I thank St.Mary's and all the staff for accepting me. Thanks a lot Declan Rothery.

It's been 7 years since i left St. Mary's and i'm glad to see that not all of the faces have changed! This website is a new feature as well, good to see things are happening to keep the school more up-to-date with the changing world around it. I hope all the kids there now are enjoying it as much as i did, make the most because you'll miss it when you leave! Good luck to all the kids with everything they do this year and in years to come. And to the staff - thanks for giving me the tools I needed to move on in the world. I'm coming back from university for christmass so i might make a visit! Maybe see you then!

Hi! Saw the web address in the Courier today so thought I'd check out the site - very impressive! Can't believe its 11 years since I left, it only seems like yesterday I was causing Mrs Hogan no end of problems (sorry lol!) and playing for the football team. Its good to see Mr Copley is still at the helm. Is Mrs Thomas still working there? If so hello from me. Great school and many fond memories. Keep up the good work!

i love being in mrs rowans class and i dont want to leave this school

ooh how i will miss St mary's. My brother Craig and i were taught by Mr O'connor and Mrs Garside back in the late 70's and loved every minute being there. So to see my daughter Saskia go through the school has been fantastic. I have and would in the future recommend the school it's a shame Saskia leaves this time for St Catherine's as i will miss all the interaction. I am told my services on the bottle stall at the garden party are still required even when she leaves so obviously i will !!! Thanks St Marys for the care and encouragement you have given saskia.

I think this school is ace. My dad went to this school and his teacher was Mr O'Conner! He liked it. I nev er want to leave. The school Production was cool the Infants were realy good. But I liked 5H/C's best.
The Webmaster-Mrs Hinsley is really ace

Seeing this website is bringing back so many memories! It's great to see so many of the staff still there from my time (which was 1989 - 1996)! I remember Mrs Garside, Mrs McCambridge, Mr O'Connor and of course, Mr Copley. Ahh good old days! I wonder if any of the teachers remember me?

Hello, Happy New Year, sorry this comes late we had big problems with our computer, it had a cold or flu, or some sort of virus!
We moved to our new home back in July, we are all really happy here. During the summer we played in the pool and went for long bike rides in the country and the forest not far from our home. When we moved house that meant we had to move schools too! We were all very sad to leave our friends, but we have made lots of new friends and we are very popular.
We would like to say hello to all our friends in Year 3, and all the teachers too!
Mummy and Daddy send there regards to Mr. Copley and all the Staff. We hope that everyone has a good half-term holiday.

Hello Everyone,
Greetings from Canada, where the weather is starting to get mighty cold! We haven't had any real snow yet, just a few flurries, but that's a reminder that the big winter snows are just around the corner. Probably by Christmas we will be knee deep again!

It was great to see you all again when we called in during the summer. Emily really enjoyed catching up with her friends again. She says hello to everyone, and will be in touch before Christmas. She is doing well in school, and has lots of new friends. She has a male teacher this year, who is a bit cool and trendy, and plays a white guitar. He lets them choose the music for the lunch hour, everyone takes it in turns. She started Irish dancing lessons a few weeks ago and is doing well with them. She can do a Reel, and a Jig already, and is learning the Slip jig next.

That's all for now, maybe the Year 4 children could email us and let us know what they have been up to this year.

Love to Everyone,
Michael Stephanie and Emily.

Hello, I attended St Mary's between 1975/81 and have very fond memories of being taught by Mr Wilde, Mr Gott, Mr O'Connor and so many more. What a great school and what a pleasure to be associated with it!

Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Hi Katie nice to hear from you again. Don't think your mum agrees about the pic.

big hi from peter kay this is a great school
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Hi Peter, thanks for the lovely comment, I too think it's a great school.

hi i dont go to your school but i would like to say hi to james lively ,mellisa,katie,lucy,shona and all her friends!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bye luv sally
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Hi to you Sally. Hope you enjoyed surfing our site.

hi i'm karina hyams alot of kids will agree on this one. we spend 20 hours a week
in school and only 7 and half at play time a week. i think dinner playtime should be an hour and a half. 1st and 3rd playtime should be 45 minutes. i also think that
school dinners should be healtheier and that juniers should eat in the juniers hall and the infants should eat in the infants hall
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Interesting comments Karina, I do think you will find that school dinners are a lot more healthier now. You should suggest the dinners and eating places to the school council. Your calculations on the time spent in school have gone a little wrong. Come in to see me and I will help you to make the correct calculations, I think you will be surprised at just how many hours are spent at school and how much play time you get!

yo big up this is nile i would like to say hi to all the teachers exspecially my class teacher mrs mayfield and i would also like to say hi to my m8 so hi, mattyw,jake r,cammy,matty k and simon from nile

hey this is matty wilson in 6m i`d like 2 say a big hey to all ma homeboys nile jake ,matty kaye,jimbob kelly cammy,and april yor a star

Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
So glad you are enjoying the website Katie. As soon as I get an up to date photograph of the leavers I will post it on the site.

Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Hi girls
Nice to hear from you, but don't you have an ICT lesson to concentrate on? easily seen Mrs Hinsley is not in your ICT lesson!!!
Hope you are both doing well at school, do keep us up to date with your progress.

Hey St. Mary's,
We are all off school at the moment and I thought I would look around the website because it is to hot to play outside (yesterday it got up to 38 degrees centigrade.) Please could i say hello to all of the pepole in Year 2. Send my love to all the teachers. I really miss everyone and wish I could see you all again. Anyway I have got to go - it's Lunch time.

Ta Tar

Love from Diddy Foran
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (".)
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Hi Lydia
Wish I was there with you, we could do with some sunshine. All your friends in year 2 and the teachers say hello. We all hope you and your family are settling in and enjoying your new home and school. Ask Mummy and Daddy if they can help you to send us some photographs of you and your sisters in France, we could put them on the website for all your friends to see. Do pop in and see us next time you are all over in the UK and keep visiting the website.

This is the first time that I have looked on the site for St Mary's and it was really interesting to see which teachers who taught me are still there. I was at St Mary's from 1988-1995 (I can't believe it has been ten years since i left!) and I'm now in my third year of university and on a year long placement in the South-West of France. Well done for the website once again!!
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Hi Sarah Thank you, I hope you enjoyed surfing our site. Doesn't time fly? What are you studying in university? Have a great time in France and do please visit us again.

Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Hi Paul
All the teachers say hello. Primary school is special isn't it? Secondary school will get better once you have adjusted. All those exams will believe it or not help you in the future, just do your best. Hope to hear from you again soon.

Hi Webmaster
I have just visited your web site and I am really pleased to see that you manage to keep the information up to date with lots of news and information on what is happening at your school. I used to work at Siddal Primary as ICT Technician but I now work at Calderdale College as a Resource Learning Instructor.
You never know I might be meeting some of your pupils in the future!!
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley

My Mummy says hello to everyone and wishes them a wonderfully happy 2005!
Lots of love

Hi to everyone at St. Mary's. Just a quick line to wish everyone a happy and peaceful Christmas. We are settling well here in Canada. We hope to come back to England for a visit in early July next year so we may come and pay a visit. Great website, a brilliant way of keeping up to date with all the happenings at St Mary's. Best wishes to Mrs Moulding! Hope it all goes well! Congratulations to Mr O'Connor on his retirement. Peace at last. Not.
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Everyone at St Mary's return their wishes and hope you have a happy and peaceful Christmas also. Please do pop in in July it would be lovely to see you all again.

Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Have you tried cleaning your glasses Carole!! Lovely to hear from you, hope all is going well, we are missing you. Love to all the family xxx

St Marys you never fail to impress me, what a lovely website I'm just so sorry it's taken me so long to find it. It's amazing what you can get up to whilst not working. I'm off work at present following a car accident last week, & guess what it was your very own lunchtime superviser Karen Anderson who came to my rescue, she was brilliant she kept me calm & gave me TLC till the ambulance came I can't thank her enough. You can count on me visiting again, I'm far too nosey not to Best wishes Jo machon. (Kate & Oliver's mum)
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Sorry to hear about your accident Joanne. Hope you are well on the mend now. Karen is an angel isn't she? Must have been so much more comforting for you having such a lovely lady assisting you in your time of need.
Look forward to hearing from you again. We send our prayers and best wishes that you get well soon.

This is a lovely, user friendly place to be. I use the diary page to update my own diary and it's great to be able to check dates while I'm in work to make sure I haven't forgotten anything. I'd recommend all parents to have a browse.
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Thank you for the recommendation Julie. I do try to keep the site as user friendly as I can and the diary up to date as much as possible.

Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Thank you for the lovely comments Tasha.

I attended St Mary's in the 1960's, I left to emmigrate to Australia with my parents in 1965. My goodness how things have changed. Congratulations on a fantastic website.
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
How nice to hear from you Sue. Do you still live in Australia? I am sure you have lots of memories of St Mary's in the 60's. We would love to hear some of them.

Thank you mrs.McCambridge for the servise you're rendering . I thank the Headteacher and the whole staff of St.marys please never give up.I have liked the school, activies, and its suroundings.Iam from kampala Uganda (Eastafrica) God bless you all.
Webmaster - Mrs Hinsley
Thank you for visiting our site and leaving your comments. We hope you will visit us again and continue to enjoy our school.

Just having a browse through the website to check I haven`t missed anything!? I`m most impressed with it and wanted to congratulate Mrs.Hinsley on the smashing layout-very child friendly.What a star! Happy Holiday! X

Really pleased to hear that the website has been useful to you Trish. I endeavour to keep it updated as much as possible. I really would welcome any ideas you and other parents may have on improving the site.

Thank you Mrs Hinsley for the great site. I don't know what happens to all the letters home they seem to vanish into thin air.
Now I can keep up to date with all the news and events thanks to the diary and term dates.

Glad you liked the site Lauren, Kirsty and Freddie. Did it bring back memories Freddie? Do bring your friends along and visit us again soon.

Its a good sight, I couldn't think of anything to look for so I decided to go to my old school; Im glad to see there is a site as I can show all my friends what it looks like.
Freddie

I think it is brill!!!!!! thanks Mrs Hinsley

I've just been all round the website and it's BRILL!!!!!!!!!!!
Thankyou Mrs Hinsley!!!

Thank you to all who have visited our website and left messages. I do hope you like the new look website. I would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. God bless you all.

Happy BIrthday Mrs Rowan. Remember life begins at forty. from luci XXXXXX

I think the website is brill and I would like to say good luck to all the people taking their 11+

Thank you for your message Robert. Apologies for the incorrect spelling in the handbook, I will look into this. Tell Oliver to keep visiting the website, he may just see Miss Kitson on there soon. If he would like to read under the spot light which will feature Miss Kitson soon, visit the children's website at www.kidzgalaxy.ik.org

I have just visited the school web site for the first time and thought it was very well presented (your address is however wrong in the school handbook - the 's' is missing from 'stmary'). Well done to those who have produced this. Oliver thought it was good also, but was upset there was no photo of his teacher - Miss Kitson. He did however like Mrs Garesides' ''colouful'' top!!

I am pleased to read that you really enjoyed your work experience week with us Chris. Thank you for all your hard work. Your diary certainly made interesting reading. We wish you all the very best for the future.
Old age 'Mr O'Connor' what is that? Does it have anything to do with retirement?

I have been on work experience at St. Mary's (6-10th October 2003) for the week, and had the most enjoyable time working with all the children, from Reception through to Year Six in all apsects of their ICT work.

A fantastic week - thanks to the children and Mrs Hinsley for making it so exciting!

I must be getting forgetful in my old age as I can`t remember where I put my Teachers` Diary sheet. Then it suddenly struck me - where might I find this important information? on the School Web Site of course. Worth its weight in gold. Well done Mrs. Hinsley.

Thank you for visiting our website Lynda, I am pleased you enjoyed it and I do hope your children in the US will enjoy it also.
Up to date we have had visitors from America, Australia, Hong Kong, The Philippines, Scotland and Halifax. It is exciting to hear from people in other countries, do keep in touch.
Good luck Bethany and Katie in your new secondary schools.
Good luck Kevin for the future. We hope you will all keep visiting our school and website, God bless you.

Wonderful website! I enjoyed seeing my nephew Simon Gott. I hope to share the site with the students that I work with in the U.S. Take care & God bless.

Thank you for the last 7 years. Good Luck. As they say school days are the best times of your life I think may be right.

Thankyou St Marys for everything, good luck in the future, God Bless, love Katie x

The end of two hours on a hot Thursday morning was no time for me to embark on a speech. Lest I should appear ungracious may I now thank you all for the gifts kindly given to me on my "departure". I have loved every minute of my involvement with St. Mary's. Nobody could fail to get satisfaction from working alongside professionals, and I use the word "professionals" in its widest sense to cover all those people in the school who work "professionally" regardless of qualifications, etc.

As the RE Report says I still get a "buzz" every time I enter the school and hopefully I always shall. If God spares me I look like having about another ten years on the school run.

My thanks to you all for letting me feel proud and humble at the same time.

God bless you all,

Kevin

I have very much enjoyed looking at your bright,cheerful, colourful website which is so full of useful information.

Lynne, I managed to visit the web site for the first time and was I impressed. You are a STAR. See you soon.

Hello from another EcoCity team member. I couldn't resist saying hello and how much I also enjoyed meeting you all and working with you. Its always hard to say goodbye after having such a good week together and we'll get our report to you as soon as we can. You really were such a cool group to work with. Thanks again. And congratulations on the web site, especially the art work which I liked a lot.

We were so delighted to receive the letters from the children about the ecocity project. Thank you very much for writing to us.
We are still sorting things out after the end of the project believe it or not so sorry you haven't heard from us yet. You should be receiving some photos soon.
We will be in touch again soon. In the meantime, you'll be pleased to know that the adults who worked on their own visioning exercise of Halifax the weekend after we finished EcoCity incorporated over 80% of the children's ideas into the overall plan! We are delighted and are sure you will be too.
I'm really sorry all of you couldn't have been involved in the week. There are some of you who were very disappointed. I hope you saw some of your ideas on the model though and can take some pride in being part of the overall project.
Thanks again for the very positive comments - you were all a joy to work with - we are so glad St Mary's was involved. You are truly a credit to the school and to Halifax . So were Mr O'Connor and Mrs Thomas!!! Yes, they really were!
We'll be in touch again soon.
love
Cathy

Thank you for visiting our site and leaving your comments Robert, Brooke and Yasmin.
As you work in e-commerce Robert, maybe you can give me some hints for the website! I would welcome more comments from parents. Come on Parents, Richard has told me that he finds the Diary useful as he keeps losing all the news letters that Rebecca takes home (thanks for your honesty Richard). What do you find helpful or what would you like to see included on the website. Please let me know and leave your comments when you visit.
Thank you

Has anyone noticed the change in our website? (not including updated news etc) You need to look closely. A chocolate surprise for the first person to tell Mrs Hinsley what the change is.

I really like the web,it's EXCELLENT!

Working in e-commerce, web sites always interest me - so when I saw the web address on a letter my daughter brought home from school, I had to take a peep! Superb site, easy to navigate and very informative (especially the diary section - I am forever losing the letters Rebecca brings home!) Well done!!!

I thought the picture of Mr Chris O'Connor was a very good likeness

I attended the 'Bring a Parent to School Day' and would like to say a very big thank you to all the people who made this a thoroughly enjoyable and challenging day. School meals haven't changed much but the advent of technology is very evident in the classroom in which I now sit. The ICT Suite was my year 6 classroom in 1972!

Saw the website address on the school door and thought I'd have a look. Particularly liked the Diary section and look forward to more class work being posted to the Class Pages.

Thank you Mr O'Connor and Mrs Hogan for your comments. What has happened to the rest of our visitors? Don't be shy! I know you have viewed the website, you've told me so. Leave us a comment next time.
