Gold Food4Life

I am pleased to be able to announce that we have achieved our 'Gold' Food4Life Schools award.  

I appreciate the time and effort you as parents and pupils and staff have put into ensuring compliance with the School Food Standards as well as creating a positive healthy lifestyle atmosphere. Huge congratulations on achieving the ‘GOLD’ level of the award! 


Read our Tudor non-fiction book

For World Book Week, Year 4 made an exceptional non- fiction book all about The Tudor. They each had one area to research and make notes on and compile a few paragraphs about. The end result, I'm sure you'll agree, is exceptional. I am very proud of their efforts and hard work. It was no mean feat to create a book in a week. Well done Year 4. 


Disgusting Digestion

Today, the children got their first science lesson in our new topic- digestion. The children were able to identify some organs before the session, knowing that their food went into their stomach but were far more knowledgeable after the lesson. They were able to make connections easily between the teeth and how food is broken down with the stomach, small and large intestines. Inevitably, the children were 'grossed out' with discussing how the body gets rid of waste food!


International Womens Day

We are very proud that Evie was featured in the international womens day poster for basketball in Tameside. What a great photo! Thank you for sharing this with us!


Henry VIII

Henry VIII visited Year 4 today and was questioned rigorously by the children. They wanted to know about his marriages, his interests, his eating habits and lots more. What a fantastic royal visit. 


#letgirlsplay

Our Game Changers led the assembly this morning where they explained what their role was in school and how they got into football; they also discussed how equal access is wanted in girls football by 2024. I cannot wait to see how they continue to inspire girls at Broadbent Fold to take part in football.Tomorrow (8th March) is #letgirlsplay day where lots of girls football tournaments will be run throughout the day. We cannot wait!


Let Girls Play

We want girls to play football!

It’s time to take a stand, to make a difference.

Girls are an unstoppable force for good if they’re given the chance. The chance to play football.

They want to play in the school curriculum, at breaktime, after school, at local clubs – wherever, whenever they want. No barriers, no stereotypes. Let Girls Play.


World Book Day competition winners

The Reading Ambassadors met with me today to choose winners of our 'top hat' design competition. This was very difficult because the standard was so high throughout school. Our winning top hats have been displayed in the KS2 Library.

Our winners are Nursery- Zachary, Reception- Vanessa, Y1- Tobias, Y2- Noah, Y3- Chloe, Y4- Ted, Y5- Oliver and Y6- Mia.

Thank you to everybody who entered the competition. 


Marvellous Maths

Year 4 have been working hard to master division. They started off with understanding division as an inverse to multiplication and have progressed onto using a part, part, whole model. Today, they have been dividing numbers with remainders and tomorrow they'll be looking at 3 digit numbers to divide. Some fantastic work.
