Welcome to St. Michael's Church of England Primary School, Bamford
Children attend our school from 8.55am to 3.30pm each day. This amounts to a typical school week of 32 hours and 55 minutes. Included in this time is an hour for lunch each day and 15 minutes morning playtime. Year 1 and 2 children also have a 15 minute break in the afternoon.
Thank You once again Parents, for your continued support

Our children shine brightly. High expectations, endless encouragement and quality teaching enable us all to believe in and aspire to reaching our full potential in every way. Children leave St. Michael’s knowing that with effort, commitment, engagement and self-belief they are ready to spread their wings and fly. |
