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.”

Today, we celebrated Sir David Attenborough's 100th birthday with a fantastic Outdoor Learning Day across the school! The children took part in a range of outdoor learning activities, creative art activities, 'David Attenbook' time on the field, enjoying the sights and sounds of nature, and litter picking to help care for our school and local environment. Thanks to St Austell Tidy Up Team for lending us their equipment. We were also incredibly lucky to welcome a professional gardener and beekeeper to school. Every class enjoyed an engaging session where they had the opportunity to observe a real beehive, learn all about the daily activity within the hive, the different roles of bees and the fascinating process of honey production. Our Student Council were given a dedicated session to explore the topic in even greater depth, learning more about sustainability within the garden and ways we can all help protect our environment. Alongside this, we held our 'Design and Bake a Birthday Cake for David Attenborough' competition. Thank you to Miss Tregunna for this fantastic idea and to Jake's Bakes Cornwall for judging and choosing the winners - an incredibly difficult task given the quantity and quality of entries! A huge thank you to everyone in our school community who supported the event by entering the competition and purchasing a cake at the end-of-day cake sale. Thank you too to our parent helpers for giving up their time help with this.

Scillies Day 1: For those of you who are more astute you might have noticed that this is not an aeroplane! Because of the weather, we couldn't all fly so we hopped on the Scillonian and headed over. We've explored some of the island, set up camp and Mr Boynton's quiz is just about to start (wish us luck!). Lots of smiles and memories being made!

Thanks to our friends at Jake's Bakes Cornwall for coming in to support us today!

One of our school values is kindness, and we wanted to take a moment to celebrate the wonderful Mrs Tregunna, who demonstrates this value each and every day. This morning, she arrived with this beautiful cake for the Year 6 children, who have just completed their SATs - such a thoughtful way to recognise all of their hard work and perseverance. Thank you, Mrs Tregunna, for your continued kindness and support!
