World Book Day celebrations started early in Year 4. The children were able to bring in their favourite books today, complete bookmarks, design book covers, complete character studies and read. I look forward to seeing all them all in costume on Friday.What a fantastic hour it was!

Year 4 are very excited to be running the science fair this year and have spent the afternoon getting ready for the event next week. From their enthusiasm, it's going to be amazing. 

Year 3 have learnt about pulleys and cranes and how they can be used to move a heavy load.

Children learnt this skill so that they could plan and design a crane which would rescue The Iron Man.

Pulleys were used successfully to pull the Iron Man.

Year 3 are showing fabulous Design Technology skills.  They worked cooperatively with their team to create a successful model crane.

The Eco Leaders have been revamping our lovely planter that was donated to school by Stalybridge Women's Institute. 

Todays challenge was to use wool to make a spider web and ask another team to get through the web without touching it!  Everyone had great fun crawling in and out of the webs. 

Year 5 love making lumpy stew and mud mousse in the mud kitchen!

Year 5 started their Haka sessions n PE on Friday!  Their ultimate aim is to create a Haka dance for one of the Rainforest tribes that they've learnt about.  They need to use tactics to scare opposing tribes and Year 5 have definitely got off to a great start!  Watch this space!  Mrs Blomeley

Year 5's Awards this week were given for amazing artwork, great contribution to questions in class and for being Ready, Respectful and Safe all week.  Silver certificates and badges were awarded to those who achieved 100 Star points!  Well done everyone!  Mrs Blomeley

World Book Day is celebrated between 7th-8th March and children may dress up on Friday 8th in their World Book Day costumes or in their own comfy clothes- please remember to bring in your favourite book from home to read.   The Reading Ambassadors and Librarians have set a World Book Day competition. Your child needs to create a new front cover for their class text which they are reading this half term.

Well done to all of year 3 for receiving a head teachers award for being excellent Broadbent Fold children at our linking school. Also, a huge well done to the other children in these photos for their awards.
