[edit] Cleanup

This article should be written in third person; it appears to be promote the school, it is also in need of a clean-up. I am willing to work on this article, pending further research. Berniewilson 02:29, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

I could give you a hand with clean-up /wikifying this page, time permitting. ɪŋglɪʃnɜː(r)d(Suggestion?|wanna chat?) 10:07, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Have made a start, but it still reads like an advert, I don't have a large knowledge about the school, but I've done what I can, will try to do more work later. ɪŋglɪʃnɜː(r)d(Suggestion?|wanna chat?) 12:31, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

I have made further improvements; albeit small grammer changes and rephrased two sentences. I only came across this article last night whilst working on an article on my own school, also called St. Mary's.

Yes, I came across it a couple of days ago too, My sister used to go there, and I noticed it wasn't listed on the disambig page, so after restructuring that, I put a note on my to-do list to clean up this article, as it was in sore need! ɪŋglɪʃnɜː(r)d(Suggestion?|wanna chat?) 19:10, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] advert

This text needs re-phrasing, I may do so later on, when I have more time available.

St Mary’s is a real home from home for boarders who enjoy a busy range of extra curricular activities. Rock climbing, sailing, riding or kayaking – weekends are always busy but girls also have time and space to curl up with a book . We achieve exceptional academic results but school isn’t all about work! Creativity is encouraged and the school fosters a “can do!” attitude. We nurture, enhance and improve all abilities and without the distraction of boys, our girls develop great confidence. The extensive curriculum supports all skills and talents – we’re strong in the arts and core subjects thanks to the commitment of our dedicated staff. Our dynamic IT team ensures St Mary’s is constantly developing.Berniewilson 00:43, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
