Infant Trip to Farmer Ted’s Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 had a fantastic time at Farmer Ted's on Wednesday. They met lots of interesting farm animals and had fun on the adventure park not to mention the tractor ride! As always the children represented Bishop Martin superbly and we could not be more proud! 30 Hours Free Provision for Nursery The government are introducing 30 hours free provision for nursery children from September 2017. If you have a child due to start nursery over the next few years and would like more information regarding this we are holding a meeting to give out information and answer questions. The meeting is on Wednesday 12th July at 5pm in the infant hall. For seating purposes please let the office know if you will be attending.

Reading/library books
Uniform Orders
We will be collecting any books, belonging to school, before the summer break. This allows us to audit what books we have. Many books are lost or damaged each year which is a great cost to school. Please check your cupboards and return any books before the end of term.
New uniform order forms are available in the office. Please order and pay for by 20th July for collection on Friday 1st September. If we have any uniform in stock when you pay this can be taken away on the day.
