Let’s Count Day

St Mary’s held a ‘Let’s Count Day’ in conjunction with the Office for National Statistics.  It was decided that we would hold a ‘kindness’ day, linking with our recent work on ‘virtues’.  Each class counted acts of kindness, which were illustrated by different classes in different ways.  A whole school total was also generated.  Our display was entered into a national competition and we received this message in recognition of our entry:

Thank you so much for taking part in Let‘s Count! and entering the competition.  The standard of entries was extremely high, which made the judging process very difficult!  On this occasion your school’s entry was not selected as a winner, however I’m pleased to say that the entry from St Mary’s Catholic School, Buckfast was commended by the judges.  In recognition of this, you can now download a certificate of merit to display at school.
