The Eco Leaders did a fantastic job when they went litter picking at Gorse Hall. With the help of Mr Pickles from the Friends of Gorse Hall and Mr Moon from Tameside Rotary and we collected 4 big bags full of litter. All of the children worked really hard even in the pouring rain. Well done everyone for helping to improve our local environment which will help our wildlife to grow and thrive.

Year 5 were excited, and a little confused, when a mysterious parcel arrived through the post for them! Amongst other things it contained a faded football, a variety of shells and pebbles, a cryptic message in a bottle and a letter from “Michael” asking for advice. Year 5 have already discovered that the story is none other than Michael Morpurgo’s Kensuke’s Kingdom and they are waiting for the story to unfold to help them to solve Michael's dilemma! Watch this space! Mrs Blomeley

Year 5 made their pledges last week to join the TCS Mini London Marathon! The challenge in schools around the country is for every pupil to pledge to take part and help set a new Guinness World Records title! We are hoping to receive an official Guinness World Records certificate to keep and display with pride at Broadbent Fold! The class ran their first daily mile this week and had great fun! Mrs Blomeley
Our question this Half Term is "Would you be brave enough to sail around the world?" Based on the amazing book Kensuke's Kingdom, by Michael Morpurgo, the children become hooked into the story when a mysterious box, containing a letter of dilemma and some strange items, arrives for them in class..... Please see below the Medium Term Plan and the Home Learning Challenge Grid for this Half Term. Mrs Blomeley
