Headmaster's Welcome
Welcome to Stonyhurst St Mary’s Hall, the preparatory school to Stonyhurst College.
St Mary’s Hall is a Roman Catholic school in the Jesuit Tradition providing co-education for boarders and day pupils from age 3 – 13. St Mary’s Hall provides the first step in this universally recognised educational tradition which is completed at Stonyhurst College, founded in 1593, the oldest continuous Jesuit school in the world.
Set in the beautiful Stonyhurst estate in rural Lancashire, we boast outstanding facilities for teaching, sports and cultural activities. Above all we foster a strong sense of family and Christian community, pursuing excellence in all areas of school life and ensuring the development of the whole person to instil lifelong values.
You can read our prospectus by clicking on the link below or you can explore our website but these give no more than a glimpse of the opportunities at St Mary's Hall so I do hope you will come and visit us, meet our pupils and staff and join us for lunch; I look forward to welcoming you personally.
