Welcome to St Matthias
During school closure, we want to reward our students who have been working hard engaging with their learning. Each week we will be awarding a learner of the week for two students from each subject. Your teachers will be nominating the students who are working hard and engaging with their learning. This means rewarding the students who are emailing work to their teachers and students who are working hard to complete the online and paper learning tasks that their teachers have set. Names will appear on our website and on our Twitter account every Monday. So have a look there to see if you are a learner of the Week.
