School News and Updates
Dear Parents/Carers, Easter Reflections
Birkrig, Skelmersdale, Lancashire WN8 9BN.
Telephone: 01695 724730. www.bishopmartin.lancs.sch.uk
Today we have celebrated the end of our Easter Reflections with a Eucharist at Christ the Servant Church. Children from our KS2 worship group met with Rev Paul earlier this week to write the service and prayers were led by the children. We ended the service with a presentation to Mr Greenlees (Chair of Governors), Mr Jones (grandparent) and Mr Jones (past pupil) with your kind donations of toiletries for the Benidorm Busy Bees charity as they head off on their exciting adventure – racing across Europe with Benidorm Bangers. We wish them every success and look out on our website for updates on their progress.
Thank you for your donations, they are very much appreciated.
