Welcome to Bemerton St John School Website

Welcome to Bemerton St John C of E Primary School which is part of Magna Learning Partnership. I hope that the information contained on this website helps to give a flavour of our aims, objectives and expectations of our pupils. The children lie at the heart of everything we do at Bemerton and staff and governors firmly believe that all of our children deserve the very best education and to give them second best is to fail them.

I feel privileged to be a part of such a happy and caring school where the whole school community works together for the good of the school and its pupils. We are a Voluntary Aided School which enables the Local Governing Body to ensure that staff appointed, remain true to the Christian principles that underpin a Church School. We are committed to developing every child’s full potential intellectually, physically, spiritually and socially, and feel this is most successfully achieved when we work in partnership with parents and carers.

We are proud of the children in our school and what they achieve. Each one of us at Bemerton St John, children and adults alike, is on a learning journey to discovery and understanding. Our children reflect the ethos of our school – they are happy, secure, confident and determined to tackle the exciting challenges that our school offers. It is a pleasure to welcome you to our school.

It is Book Week here at Bemerton and we are celebrating all things 'Books'. Things might be a little different to previous years but that isn't stopping us from helping children to develop reading for pleasure as a life-long habit.

We have loved your creative potato characters. Here are just a few.

We are so pleased to be welcoming all children back to school this week. It's a perfect week to return as it is also British Science Week across the country with the theme: Innovating for the Future.

All classes will be celebrating with science lessons aimed at stimulating curiosity and learning more about this theme.

Why not take a look at the Science Museum website for further fun (and tasty!) ideas for home experiments.

Please go to your child's class page for photos of their innovating investigations.
