Year 3 have had fun in forest school playing the follow the leader game and having a go at safely making mini fires. They have also been using clay, sticks and other natural resources to make their own creations.
A big well done to our Year 3 stars of the week. Congratulations to the children who received their Head Teacher's Awards and Bronze Award. Thank you to our Good to be Green winners for following our school rules. You make us proud!

The Iron Man needed help so Year 3 learnt about pulleys and decided to create a design to rescue him.
They planned, designed and tested their models in order to try to lift the Iron Man.
Great team work took place with lots of discussion on how to make models. Children asked each other how they could improve their designs.
Together we evaluated models, we decided models needed to be more sturdy and strong to stop the Iron Man from breaking the designs.
Our Pupil Leaders have decided that every Wednesday is a wellbeing 'check-in' day. On Wellbeing Wednesday we take time to chat, to do yoga, meditation and share things on our mind. Staff and pupils are joining in with these special days every week. Join in at home too and talk to each other.

We are incredibly proud of our Year 6 class who worked really hard to organise and run the Science Fair today. They were superb role models for our younger children and have shared their scientific knowledge so well all morning. Please look through the photographs.

Year 3 children really enjoyed visiting Science fair in Year 6 classroon. Year 6 children shared their knowledge and explained the science behind the activities they were running. We would like to thank Miss Harvey and all the Year 6 children for organising this special treat for us.
A big well done to our stars of the week who have received the Head Teacher's Award for their hard work and attitude to learning. Our Good to Be Greeen lottery winners have followed our school rules of being Ready, Respectful and Safe. Our Silver Award winner has collected 100 star points.

On Tuesday the Science Boffin Vicki visited Broadbent Fold as part of British Science Week.
During the assembly we watched paper disappear when she lit it on fire - this is special paper called 'flash paper'
Miss Harvey was kindly volunteered to have water tipped on her head... luckily the water had disappeared from the cup. This was because slush powder was in the bottom of the cup- this is a special powder which absorbs water. This is what is used in disposable nappies.

Year 3 watched lots of exciting experiments in the Boffin assembly.
In their workshop they looked very closely at illusions. Are the coloured papers different sizes? Or is it just an illusion?

This year Science Week's theme is Growth. Today, Year 3 children planted some pepper, carrot, lettuce and tomato seeds. We also set up a spring onion growth investigation. It involved measuring (amount of water, lenght and circumference of the spring onions) and cutting. We put our spring onions in water and placed them outside. We will be observing them for the next 2 weeks and recording our finding.
We aslo planted some cress seeds and placed them in different conditions to find out what seeds and plants need to grow.
Keep checking our blog for updates on our plants.
