Year 5's Haka Dance routine!

Year 5 have started to learn the Haka dance in their PE sessions with Miss Harrop, our Sports Coach.    After only two weeks they know all the moves they have learnt so far and are looking very impressive!  The Haka is a ceremonial Māori war dance or challenge which is usually performed in a group and represents a display of a tribe's pride, strength and unity.  Our aim is to create a suitable war dance to link to our Anglo Saxon topic.  Mrs Blomeley


Year 5's Super Science visit to Rayner Stephens!

Year 5 enjoyed their visit to Rayner Stephens yesterday for a Science Workshop, where they spent time in the Science Lab doing Chemistry!  Whilst there, they explored some different Acids and Alkalis and used a universal indicator to place them on the pH scale! They finished their session by mixing different ingredients to make a chemical reaction, which resulted in sherbet!  When we got back to school, the class designed their own wrappers for sherbet!  We were all extremely proud of the children's work and behaviour at Rayner Stephens was just amazing!  Well done everyone!


#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. 


Every Child's An Author in Year 5!

Year 5 got their inspiration from a "Footy and Booky" Quiz that they had watched during the week, where footballers talked about the importance of reading.  Year 5 decided to write about their thoughts and ideas about reading and link it to well-being.  Their book, "Reasons for Reading", is a combination of advice and poems  and will be placed in the Library for all to read!  Brilliant work Year 5!  Mrs Blomeley

Year 5 arrived in Year 5 yesterday with such an array of their favourite book characters!  Important people from history such as Cleopatra, Julius Caesar and Queen Anne joined in with a variety of "Sophies" from Roald Dahl's The BFG and characters from Harry Potter!     Surprise visits from "Wednesday Adams" and the "Minecraft Creeper" figure, together with girls from the "Dork Diaries",  two footballers, the boy from "Lost and Found","Dorothy and Toto" from The Wizard of Oz, "Super Ted",  "Willie Wonka", "Princess Jasmine", "Frog Girl", "Winne the Witch", and "Alex Ryder" completed the cla
