this is the best school ever

Oh my gosh, I remember being here!
One of the best schools I've ever attended - anyone remember me? E-mail me if you do! I live in England now, but my home is still Germany. Time is passing so quickly - I'm going into year 10 come September )at the age of 14). I estimate I was here from about 2001 - 2004 (year 2 - 4).
Shout out to Mr. Jessop, Mrs. Cartwright and Mr. David, wonderful teachers who set me up for life. I was to young when I attended this school to truly appreciate you guys - but thank you so much!
:) I miss Germany, but it's nice to find I am not alone in that. Best friends I ever had came from here, I miss you all! X x

You are the best school ever :) . You rock the world and wish I could stay here forever and ever but one day you have to leave because that is the way life goes

Hi everyone, I was just looking at school websites for my homework and I thought I would check this one out too. I was here 4 years ago, in Yr 4. I think that this is the most FANTASTIC school I have ever been to, and that is out of a lot of schools. I now live in England, and miss Germany sooo much. Please say my work I did for the Frank Buckley competion (that I won) still isn't up in the foyer!! Miss you all!

OMG!! Hello everyone, Cant believe Miss Edwards is married. Congratulations!! Hello Miss Caulfield, I really miss you, you were so nice. Hello to Mr Cunningham and Mr Jessop and Miss Goodwin. My mum Lynn says hello aswell. Happy Christmas everyone, Love Kat and Milly

ooh i almost forgot i do have a couple of pics from a school concert if anyone is interested, but if anyone has any pictures it would be great to see them, also I am thinking of going back to see everywhere I grew up next year and would like to see bp if the head teacher does not mind I would be very grateful xx

OMG I am so shocked to see some of these comments, I am glad to hear the weeping willow is still there, story time under there on a sunny day oh happy days, I remember the red post box that we used to post our christmas cards in and they would deliver them in the afternoon, I went here until 1984 when i had to come back to boring old england, I am 32 now and this is by far the best school I went to.
I remember Miss Wood with her collottes, and Miss Doris, It would be great to hear off anyone who also remembers this school even if you weren't there at the same time although it would be great to catch up with old friends,

Attended Bishop Park (Paderborn first) in 1980/81 then went to John Buchan in 1982 & 83 before moving back to England. Having found some of my old school reports and a class photo togehter with visiting this site has brought back some great memories. Nice to see i am not the only one.

Hi i went to this school 2003 to 2006. My teachers were Mr David and Miss Goodwin.I love the dance club Miss Goodwin ran. They are the best teachers ever. I now go to Gloucester seconder school in Hohne.

SOPHIE RECEIVED HER LETTER FROM HER OLD CLASSMATES AND WOULD LIKE TO SAY A BIG HELLO TO EVERYONE WHO REMEMBERS HER, SHE WILL BE MAILING SOME PICTURES OF HER NEW SCHOOL SOON.

i went to bishops park wen i was 4.5 about 17years ago! still remember alot. was a great school! was sad to leave i think i only stayed about a year. my teacher was miss evans.. she prob left by now! well.. keep it going!! x

I went twice to this great school first in the infants around 63/64 and finished in 67 in Mervyn Battys class ,Was Paderborn Primary when my two younger brothers and I attended way back then .It felt new and looking at the history see that it was built in 60 so it was .

Cant beleive this school is still going I loved it espically the swimming baths we went to for swimming lesson. As I remember I may be wrong but the floor in the baths used to lift up so the smallest person could stand up. Someone please let me know if I made that up its been on my mind for so many years. haha
I went this school between 86-88 I think ill have to check this up but so many good memories.

Hiya there, hope you are all well and enjoying yourselves! Hello to all the staff I know..keep well. Am keeping busy doing voluntary work in local school, special needs dept. of Norwich City F.C. Study Centre and have just completed my SSAFA Caseworkers Course in London. Keep Safe..Keep Well...x Tony Whitehead

Wow, I went to this school in 1982 I can't believe it is still open!

oh my gosh. its been like so many years i went to this school. i miss it so much and i miss the teachers: like Mr Jessop + Mrs Simpson. lol oh my gosh. :)

awww Bishops Park school....its over 20 years since my sister (phillippa), and myself went there, and as everyone else has voiced only found memories for me too.
I remember my favourite teacher I think her name was Ms Cowgirl (probably spelt that completely wrong), but i remember us crying when we were posted back to Tidworth, UK in 1984/5 ish
I also remember going into the big germany park for germen kids, and getting chased out back to our little parks no fair :( lol

take care all,
samantha manzie (Dad Gordon was in the REME)
Hope to come visit paderborn in the near future

Hello my name is Georgia Ormiston, you may remember me, from 2005. I now go to a school in Warminster and will be moving to Plymouth in a couple of mounths. The school still looks very nice and I do miss the great time I had there.

You may remember me for doing the singing in the year, christmas and other plays that were put on when I was there. I hope you do remember me as I remember you very, very much! I also rememer the front play park being put in when I was in year three. When I was in year four I had Mrs Cartright and my best friends were Amber, Bethan, Olivia and Kelly. I remember them all very well. I went on the Mohnesse trip with Mr Jessop and every one had a BLAST! When I was there we won the talent contest and I took part by singing a Garath Gates song to Mr Jessop on the gitar. If Mr Jessop is reading this I would like to say I miss you lots and i am still in touch with Clair Price. Thank you for reading! Natasha Ormiston xx

Hi you may remember me and my sister Georgia who used to go to this school. When I left the school I went to John Buckham school for one year and then left to go to England. Mrs Cartright and Mr Jesop might remember me and even Mrs Newton if they still work there. I hope they do because they were and still are the best teachers I have ever met. Thank you for reading this Natasha Ormiston xx

Well i don't remember alot about this school as i was 5 when i went there (2000). We then moved to England, Lincolnshire in 2001. So that was only a year. I used to live at number 14 in the army camps next to it and remember my year 1 teacher Mrs.Wood. I was hoping to find out some of my class mates names, and i was resently looking through some photograph's and found a Bishopspark one. The best of luck. Abigayle x

This is the best school I've ever been to.
Hello to all my friends in year 3 and Jake Warren in year 2.

Wow! I went to this school a loooooooong time ago. I entered 1st class in 1996....
I still live in germany though.
I can hardly remember times in Paderborn. Well gotta get back to work.

Hey, i loved going to this school, it was amazing. i haven't been to Germany since i moved back to England 7 years ago, wow thats a long time! I'm coming back on an exchange.

good luck everyone x x x

I remember going to this school but cant remember eny teachers or friends. But i remember loving it. lol

Ironic that just over 30 years ago I went to this school which was Paderborn First School then. Mrs Wood was the Headteacher then (I remember sitting outside the head's office with my finger on my lip)! Now my boys may possibly be attending early next year. Nice site, Paderborn here we come.

My girls left Bishopspark in October. It is a fantastic school with lots of great staff you should be very proud.
They both miss you all loads.

It is me again after nearly a year...lol
I was just wondering;are there some Picture`s from back in the end 70`s of the classes,in the school play`s and the Teacher`s from back then? I only have 1.class picture.
I have just read my old School report...lol
It is from 1979...that really is a long time ago.
i hope that all is well in MY old School.
Some of my Friends children are in your school now and they are all very pleased with your school.
Just as I thought...lol
So keep it up...all the hard work. I really do have to come around,before we move back to the UK and have a look how it all has changed over the years.My children would be interested in where their Mum used to go to school.
May you all be blessed.

I'm not sure if I'll be remembered but If Mr. Cunningham is reading this, I lived our you're road at no.7 and my brother and I (Lewis) were friends with your son. I was there for two years, aged 5-7.
My time in Paderborn were the best years of my childhood. I;m now twenty at university in Sheffield, England. Lewis is in his final year, studying medicine and is just a few months from qualifying as a doctor.
Hoping everything is well in Germany, I miss it a lot.

Hi there, I'm now 31 years old and always had so many great memories and always thought that the school was the happiest days of my life.

My mum ( Pat Matthew - now Anderson) was the seceratary and Joan Wood was the head teacher at the time. Is there any chance that I could get a bunch of photos of the school as my brother Alan, my mother and I would be so happy?.

I'm so pleased that the school is doing so well and even has it's own website. After Bishops park First school, iI then went on to John Buchan Middle school and also wonder if you may have any pictures of that.

What delight I'm having right now to think of all the good times I had at both schools.

Yours delightfully

Eddie Matthew - (now Anderson)

PS its great to see the old willow tree is still there, i used to climb and get into trouble

Thanx again

Eddie

This is the first ever english school i went to! It was a amazing especially the teachers and students!

Hello, I am really missing Germany! I want to say Hello to all my old teachers in BishopsPark. I have passed my test to go the bording school and i will be starting in bording september. Have yo a any snow?
Speak soon. x

Oh my goodness, when I searched for Bishopspark I honestly didn't expect you to have your own website!

I attended Bishopspark back in the day, before moving up to JBMS. I'm now grown-up (allegedly) and married to a soldier. Today I met a lady who also lived in Paderborn, and we both agreed that those were our happiest times, which explains why I'm here trawling down memory lane! I just wanted to let you know that I still have fond memories of this school, and tiny Miss Williams still remains one of my favourite teachers (even if she did make us dress up as a chinese dragon for assembly).

Keep up the good work!

Misty

That was the time I went to your school. I am 34 now and I would love to come around to see what has changed over all these years. I only have very good memories of that school. My Teacher's name at the time whas Maralyn Tate and
Mr Woodworth .Who knows maybe you still have some old Pictures of that time.

Good luck for the next 40 years
God bless and keep up the exellent work
Mary-lou

Hey everyone its charlotte clark I was in your school two years ago love your school I want to say hello to all the teachers I know I wish I was still there xx love charlotte

To all at Bishopspark. I hope you all had a restful Xmas and New Year. It has been very strange being back in the UK and has taken some adjusting to! I'm constantly checking on the town via the online Webcam and wishing I can come back to visit! Maybe one day. In the mean time, take care and keep up the "outstanding" work!!

Congratulations on an excellent report recently and a very professional website. Only too pleased to put your link on the 12th Regimental site at www.12regtra.com

I just had to come on again....to say HAPPY NEW YEAR to Mr Cunningham and everyone who ever taught me and thankyou!!

Hello Bishopspark!!
I was just sat at home thinking about the school and looking at some old photo's and thought I would check out the new site. I came into the guestbook and it brought back so many good memories when I saw the names L.Barker and Sam Bolton so I just had to leave a message. I left the school in year 4 and have been to a few since and am now currently doing my first year of GCSE's at Thamesmead School in Surrey. I really miss everyone at Bishopspark and miss living in Rudolphiweg (however you spell that) next to Mrs Barker and Mr Cunningham! Hopefully when I leave school I will be going back to Paderborn to check out some of my old haunts and the first place on my list is Bishopspark!! I still have my school Jumper but as I am 14 it probably doesn't fit anymore after 6 years!
Well I should be off, just thought I would say hi after all these years!
Thankyou for everything you did for me during my time at Bishopspark,
Sophie Wassell. 2S, 3S and 4J (3C)
p.s I am at my 6th school and Bishopspark is still BY FAR the best school I have been to!!

I was a pupil at this school a while back...........I was in the pantomime of snow white and the seven dwarves.........it was a good school I enjoyed it.......the colour of sweaters have changed but other than that it seems fantastic!

You have done a good job with the school web site they obviously don't work you hard enough

Best Wishes Sam Bolton

My daughter is one of the Marjon students, from Plymouth, Devon, currently teaching at Bishopspark. She is throughly enjoying her visit, and your website gave the family at home the chance to share her experience. Well done! Good luck for the Ofsted!

I love the new design to the website. It's looking good.
