Every year Teacher Herr Kress visits St Mary’s with a group of students and they work with Mrs Forester’s class 11F, in the science laboratory. This year they have donated a Linden Tree which has been planted in the school grounds.

Both the students from Germany and St Mary’s pupils helped to plant the tree by putting earth around the sapling and the St Mary’s pupils will look after it with help from the schools groundsmen.
