Year 4 have been showing me what they remember of column addition from Year 3. I have been impressed by their fortitude and their application. I look forward to helping them remember the format, fixing their misconceptions and extending their knowledge. A great start Year 4.
The Eco leaders would like to launch a competition to design a new sign for our blue paper bins in school. They would like the sign to explain why it is important to recycle paper - e.g. Save the world, recycle your paper. The sign should be eye catching and colourful on A4 paper. Please send your entries into school by Friday 4th November and the Eco leaders will be choosing the winners from each class.
A fabulous awards week this week. I'm very proud of all our winners. Great work everyone.
We have started to develop our diverse section of books in the KS2 Library and in our KS1 classrooms. We are very excited about the range of books that we have added to our library. These include books, characters and authors from the Black, African and Minority Ethnic community and books which celebrate characters who are neurodiverse.
Have a look in the KS2 Library for our new books with the brown sticker bands.
October is Black History Month. At Broadbent Fold we continue to raise awareness of equality and diversity. Check out our year group blogs to see which significant black individual each class has been studying. We are here to learn from the past to make a difference to our present day and our future for everyone.

Year 4 have been researching famous scientist in our computing work. Look at how well they used their Microsoft Word skills to showcase their famous scientist. They are becoming adept at adding a border, changing font, colour and underlying their work. The tricky bit was inserting a picture and they did that with ease. Well done everyone.
Look at some of Year 4's homework projects. They have worked so hard to ensure they replicated a Celtic roundhouse. Some children even went foraging for sticks to make the roof. I was impressed by them all and loved the creativity- especially the baked, clay, miniature and computerised roundhouses. Exceptional work Year 4.
We are celebrating World Space Week at Broadbent Fold. Look out for our competitions set by our Science Leader Miss Harvey. How do astronauts do their cleaning? With a vacuum!What's an astronaut's favourite tea? Gravitea!Where do astronauts train? At universe-ity!
