The school occupies two sites within walking distance of Cambridge city centre, close to the University Botanic Gardens, with sports fields a short distance away. There are approximately 160 junior school pupils, 400 senior school pupils and 100 sixth-form students. HistorySt Mary's School, Cambridge was founded 1898 by the sisters of the Venerable Mary Ward and the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who had also founded a school of the same name in Ascot, Berkshire 13 years earlier. The Sisters started out with two-day girls and two-day boarders. In 1904 the swelling numbers necessitated a change of venue and the Elms on Bateman Street was purchased for £6,000. The house had a tradition which was very much in keeping with Mary Ward's vision. It had previously belonged to Dr B H Kennedy, former Regius Professor of Greek at the University. As the school continued to grow other premises were added. Paston House was purchased in 1909.[1] The junior school was part of St Mary's School, Cambridge until it closed in 1987, when it reopened as St Catherine's Prep School and was governed by a group of parents who became the board of directors. In 2006 St Catherine's became St Mary's School, Cambridge's junior section. Both schools are governed by a single Board. BoardingThe school offers a full, weekly, or flexi boarding programme for Years 7 to Upper Sixth.[2] Approximately 20% of Senior School pupils board.[3] In 2016 the school purchased a new dedicated boarding house on Brooklands Avenue, 'Mary Ward House', to replace the two buildings previously used: Bateman House for Sixth Formers and The Elms for girls from Years 7–11.[4] Old GirlsFormer pupils are known as Pastonians, named after Paston House.[5]
