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.
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

It was lovely to have Nursery and Reception join us for singing practice this morning, we have been exploring the technique of breathing and phrasing. We also sang some fantastic action songs. @STOC_CAT #STMICMUSIC
I have been lucky enough to visit classes across school this week to support them with composing. They have been thinking about the pitch and duration of the notes they've chosen and how these fit with the songs they've been learning -Mrs Palk @CharangaMusic @STOC_CAT #STMICMUSIC
