Once a St Mary’s Girl: Celebrating Year 13 at Their Leavers’ Ball

St Mary’s School Sixth Form marked the beginning of a new chapter this May, with an evening filled with celebration, friendship and memories at their unforgettable Leavers’ Ball at Westminster College Cambridge.

For one final night as a united team before exams, university plans and new adventures begin, the girls danced, laughed, hugged and shared stories from their years at St Mary's. Teachers reflected on how quickly the time had passed and how, before their eyes, every student had flourished, becoming confident young women ready for the future.

There are no true goodbyes at St Mary's, and with plenty of promises to stay in touch, the bond between the girls was clear to see - built on friendships, support and shared experiences that will last far beyond their school years.

The Leavers’ Ball may have marked the end of a significant era, but not the end of what it truly means to be a St Mary’s girl.
