Year 5 Blog

The Reading Ambassadors met with me this week to choose winners for the book reveiw challenge that was set in December.

Thank you to all of the children who took part in the challenge- it was a very hard decision to choose a winner for each class. Please have a look at the winning book reviews which will be sent to Tameside Libraries to share on their social media.

Our winners were: Noah Hatton, Bella Rose, Kai Munro Taylor, Sam Sheppard and Abigail Taylor. 

Year 5 enjoyed their Crumble Coding Workshop yesterday  Dom, the Coding Organiser, was impressed with their computing talents; they quickly grasped the instructions to use the laptops and equipment to create different coloured lights, at different speeds!  They then went on to invent their own item of wearable tech, such as a hat, belt, wristband or sash, and added the lights they had designed.   Finally, they strutted down the catwalk in their pairs to display their creations to the class!  Amazing work Year 5.  Mrs Blomeley

Dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge....it's time for the annual Tameside dodgeball competitions.

Pupils from Year 5 and 6 loved taking part in a dodgeball competition against other schools in Tameside and everyone did Broadbent Fold very proud. 

Broadbent Fold Blasters (Y6) won games against Bradley Green Blasters and Aldwyn All Stars and also had some very close games against Greenside All Stars and Holden Clough coming 3rd in their group.

The Eco Leaders carried out the RSPB Big Schools Bird Watch this morning.  They were all excellent at spotting the birds that are living in and near the school grounds.  We saw Magpies, Carrion crows, Sparrows and Robins.  We even spotted some beautiful Goldfinches eating the seeds from the Alder trees.  Well done everyone you did a fabulous job!
