Welcome to The Bythams Primary School

The Bythams Primary SchoolThe Bythams is a family orientated small school situated in rural Lincolnshire. We have a dedicated staff and supportive parents.
Our governors give of their time freely to ensure that The Bythams provides a good education for the whole-child.

At the Bythams we pride ourselves on being able to cater for every individual need of all our pupils. From the moment children join our school at age 4, they become part of a flexible, challenging but above all fun environment, to learn and develop – right until they leave us at age 11.

We aim to create a centre of excellence in the heart of the community which will enable your child to reach their potential.

From the Head Teacher (04.2011)

A big thank you to all those of you that returned the parent/carer questionnaires. We are collating the results and I will report back on the outcomes during the summer term.

We are now two-thirds of the way through the academic year and it has been wonderful to see how the children are maturing and making progress across all areas of the school. Thank you to all those who attended the parent’s evenings last week. I particularly want to thank ‘Let’s Get Cooking’ for providing refreshments with the help of Mrs Lovesey and Mrs Van Biljon. I would also like to extend my gratitude to FOBS in particular Ms King who volunteered both evenings to help raise money for the school.

Great news! Our school football team have been crowned Stamford Football League Champions. This is the first time the school have achieved this accolade, winning all six of their matches against larger school’s. Well done to all the players.

As we approach the summer term, there are a great many activities planned (please see separate diary list). Mrs Smith and Mrs Martindale have started teaching the KS2 children the songs for our summer production Olivia again being held at Witham Hall School. I am sure that as in previous years this will prove to be a smash hit! We also have our annual Sports Day, various sporting festivals and of course our May Fair on the 21st May.

It is the first time that the school have held a May Fair. FOBS have put in a tremendous amount of work behind the scenes and the children will be learning dances to perform. We do hope as many of you can attend as possible to make this event a huge success. I am sure there will be something for everybody.

Finally, enjoy the Easter break and a little reminder that in line with all schools The Bythams will be closed for an extra day on Friday 29th April in respect of the Royal Wedding.
