All done! Both teams finished very strongly and in good time. All children completed all 16 miles and claimed their well deserved medals. I am really proud of them all. Great efforts.

Teams going well. Now heading through Tarr Steps to Mouncey Hill Gate. Over half way.

Its here! The teams are well underway and currently heading to Anstey Gate. I will keep you posted throughout the day.

Thank you to all of you that brought in bags for the PTA textile collection on Wednesday.  In total the weight we collected came to 241kg which equated to £96.40 in cash!!

Well done Everyone 👏👏👏

BN Summer Term 2017-x1i70f

We are very fortunate to have our own pre-school here at Bishops Nympton School.  Our pre-school children meet up with our Reception children on a weekly basis for Leap into Life sessions on the school playground or in the hall during bad weather, which really helps with transition into school in September, as children are used to coming into school and know the school staff and children really well.

With our thoughts already turning to our new September intake, we are able to increase the time we spend together with a view to settling children into school, so that the transition is as seamless as possible.  With this in mind our new September intake will now be spending alternate Monday and Tuesday afternoons with us in small groups.  The first session happened this week and the children really enjoyed their time within the Reception class.

It’s time to give it your all, it’s the last week to collect Active Kids vouchers. Make sure you get your community to grab as many vouchers as they can before 2 May. Last year, Bishops Nympton Primary School collected 4082 vouchers, let’s see if we can beat it in 2017.

This will take place with the reception children at school but we will be requiring parents to take their child themselves as we are unable to provide a bus for insurance purposes with booster seats etc. Date to be confirmed as soon as possible.
We are also hoping to have a trip to the Quince Honey Farm to learn about the bees etc. Date to be confirmed as soon as possible and we would require parents to take their children themselves.
