    Welcome to

    St Mewan Community Primary School

    A very warm welcome to our school website. I am very proud to be the Headteacher of St. Mewan CP School where we have an amazing team of talented, dedicated staff and energetic, enthusiastic and happy children.

    Although we are a large, two-form entry school with a nursery, our ethos is ‘small school feel, large school setting’. Our school is committed to safeguarding children with the health, safety and emotional wellbeing of every child being our main priorities.

    Our aim is that children will thrive during their time with us, in a happy and safe environment and reach their full potential through experiencing a stimulating curriculum and wide range of extracurricular activities.

    It is vitally important to us that our children enjoy their time at our school; positive and supportive teamwork is central to this and is reflected in our school mission statement.

    “Where learning, laughter and friendship are shared.”

  • Summer 2 Sports Update This half term has already been full of sport and we're not even two weeks in! Not only have our Summer 2 Sports clubs begun but we've also attended a Year 5 Rounders/Kickball event and a Year 2 Football competiton at Poltair School as well as an inclusive table tennis event at St Austell Table Tennis Club. All of the pupils involved in these events demonstrated lots of skill and ability as well as really enjoying the experience. There's still more sports opportunities coming up over the next few days and lots more planned before the end of the year #schoolsport #sportforall #summersports

  • CELT Primary Football Cup 2026 Yesterday, we took part in the first ever Cornwall Education Learning Trust Primary Football Cup which was held at Penrice Academy. St Mewan entered a Boys and Girls team and played some great football as well as showing positive attitudes throughout the event. In the Boys/Mixed competition, Mount Charles School came out on top with Newquay Junior Academy coming in close 2nd. In the Girls competition, our St Mewan team were crowned winners with Newquay Junior coming runners up! The event not only highlighted how many talented footballers there are within our trust but also demonstrated how respectful and enthusiastic they all can be when competing within sport. We'd like to say a huge thank you to Penrice Academy PE for hosting the competition and providing our pupils with such a memorable and enjoyable experience. #schoolfootball #ExceptionalExperiences

  • Our school value of kindness continues to shine through, and we are incredibly proud of these two superstars! One of our pupils, alongside her older sister, organised a coffee morning in support of Macmillan and raised an amazing £485.38 for this wonderful charity. Another pupil has chosen to donate her hair to the Little Princess Trust while also raising funds for this fantastic cause. If you would like to support her fundraising efforts, a collection box will be available in the school office. Well done to both pupils for their kindness, generosity and determination to make a difference. We are so proud of you!

  • Now that this year's Isles of Scilly Year 6 residential has come to an end, we'd like to say thank you to the different people that made it such a memorable experience for our pupils. Firstly, we'd like to thank Pelistry Farm Self Catering Accommodation for being amazing hosts. Next, we'd like to thank the Scillonian Club for providing great food and service throughout the week. Thank you to Toots Taxi and DJ Cabs for helping transport us around St Mary's and to all of the crew working on the numerous boats on the island who ensured that our pupils were able to travel back and forth to see all of the amazing islands on offer. A big thank you to Raptor Boating for an unforgettable powerboat ride where we saw seals, puffins and many other animals. A huge thanks to Matt at Kernow Coasteering for adapting the activity due to the weather and offering our pupils the most incredible weaseling session! The children were also made extremely welcome in many of the shops in Hugh Town and a special thank you must go to The IOS Store who entertained our children (and staff) with their lemon challenge! We also had an unexpected, but very much appreciated, celebrity sighting. Thank you so much Amanda Holden for stopping to speak to a number of very excited Year 6s and for taking photos with them, despite being late for her flight! We'd like to thank everyone on the Isles of Scilly; the locals, the tourists and everyone that we came across made our pupils feel safe and welcome throughout our stay! A big thank you has to go to all of staff who supported the trip for enabling our pupils to go on this trip, especially Mrs Spargo for planning such a well-organised residential. Finally, thank you to all of the Year 6 pupils who represented our school incredibly, receiving numerous compliments from everyone we met and behaved superbly throughout the week. You are amazing and we are extremely proud of every single one of you. We've created a 'highlights video' from our trip to showcase how wonderful it was and to ensure the children and their families will be able to share this experience together. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1L3HCaUJ3MuLFhCrrcu8l5jk1jpi6j5WO/view?usp=drivesdk #exceptional #educational #experience #IslesOfScilly #year6leavers #teamstmewan
