In the early 1950s, the Polish CatholicMarian Fatherspriesthood, mindful of the increasing number of school age children of Polish parentage in the UK post-World War II,set up a Polish boarding school at Lower Bullingham, on the outskirts of Hereford in buildings which had previously housed a convent. This was a junior boys' school and complemented a senior school established around the same time atFawley Court,Henley-on-Thames.Boys from the Hereford-Lower Bullingham school would also attend the local English St Francis Xavier Catholic primary school during the day, located in the centre of Hereford.
