Year 6 performed a poem by Bill Bilston in assembly today. We first looked at this poem when we did our Windrush topic and it explores refugees. The poem can be read in two directions and at first year 6 were shocked at how racist the poem seemed to be!
Please watch our poem on this link: Year 6 Performance Poetry - YouTube
They performed it fantastically today :)

Year 4 were amazed to find so many insects outside on the school field. We found so many woodlice, ladybirds, slugs, spiders, beetles and black caterpillars. Fantastic hunting Year 4.

What a wonderful momentous occasion as Broadbent Fold celebrated turning 50. So many past teachers and pupils turned up to celebrate. We shared an assembly, planted a tree and a time capsule and enjoyed a slice of cake and a cup of tea reminiscing. What a fantastic morning we all had.

A brilliant way to finish sports week with a Freddie's Fit session. The children put 100% into all the activities. Well done Year 4, I think you've all managed to do more than an hours exercise everyday this week.
