We need your help!

We are looking for parents who are willing to come to school and talk to the media and production team about why they chose St Mary’s. Are you interested? Please let Lisa Doolan know. Below is an outline of what will happen on the day;

• The production team will first capture a family photo and some quick video footage of

your child/children interacting with you/each other to support the video testimonial.

• After this, your child/children will return to class and we will film your testimonial. We will

attach a microphone and take approx. 15 minutes to capture responses to questions.

expand on some answers or ask additional questions depending on your answers. If you

are uncomfortable answering any questions, please just let us know.
