At St Michael’s , we are committed to enriching our curriculum in alignment with our mission statement, ‘Holding God’s Hand, we nurture hearts, minds, and spirits’. Through a range of curriculum enrichment activities, we strive to deepen our children’s understanding and appreciation of their faith while fostering intellectual curiosity and creativity. Our approach integrates spiritual growth with academic excellence, ensuring a well-rounded education that prepares our students to embrace challenges with compassion and resilience. Through engaging activities and tailored programs, we empower our students to explore, learn, and flourish in a nurturing Catholic environment.
The best place to keep up to date with our curriculum enrichment activities is our school Twitter/X account, which you can see below.

Reception have had a wonderful music session today. We have listened to some classical music, listened out for different instruments in music and even composed some music of our own. Watch this space as we continue to develop our musical talent! @STOC_CAT #stmiceyfsmusic

Year 3 have started their new Science unit ( Animals including Humans) by exploring the skeletons and outer shells of different creatures including crabs. They made observations about what they could see. @STOC_CAT #STMICSCIENCE
Love this! My one wish for the world is that everyone takes the time to think of others and consider different perspectives to their own as I think that would encourage people to act with kindness ❤️ thank you for taking part in the #empathydayfestival so thoughtfully ☺️
A great assembly this morning about The Rule of Law, which ties in perfectly with our Virtue of 'Honesty'. We talked about why following rules is important to keep everyone safe and happy in our homes, classrooms and in society. @STOC_CAT #stmicphse
Talking Tuesday- This week we are taking part in the Empathy Festival and our question for you is 'If you had one wish for the world what would it be and why?' We can't wait to hear your thoughts.

A great investigation into whether or not a bird's beak affects the food it eats. We used a variety of 'beaks' and 'seeds' to see which were the most efficient @STOC_CAT #stmicscience
A great opportunity to work with other local school this afternoon to moderate Year 6 writing. As always it is great to read the fantastic writing produced by our children. @STOC_CAT @OLOGPrestwich @StBernadettesrc
Year 3 shared the @TheAmandaGorman book Change Sings, we loved looking at the illustrations and identifying how one person can make a big difference, we have explored how they can be the change. @lorenlong @STOC_CAT @EmpathyLabUK #STMICENGLISH #STMICPSHE
