Debdale!!!

Friday 10th July found Year 6 on their annual activity day at Debdale Sailing Centre. The weather stayed fine and all the children enjoyed all the activities. The day finished off at school for a sleepover in the hall!!!


Design an Island!

As part of our "Treasure Island" topic, the children in Year 6 are going to design and create their very own Fantasy Islands!

 


SATs Week for Year 6!

What a busy week!

Well done to our fantastic Year 6 children.  

You have all worked extremely hard this week and kept positive and focussed while sitting your SATs.

Your teachers couldn't be more proud of you all.

A HUGE thankyou to Layla's mum for the gorgeous celebration cake (see photos) with all our names on it!

Have a lovely, chilled weekend

Nature on Film

Have you seen the latest creatures to be roaming the classrooms of Broadbent Fold? Year 6 have been busy researching, writing and filming their own nature documentaries about endangered animals. A couple of particular class favourites are the giant panda and the sun bear. 

How can we help these endangered animals to survive in the wild? We have written to Sir David Attenborough, using our best formal letter writing, to suggest an animal that we would like him to film next. Let's hope he listens and raises awareness of our furry friends!


Suspense and Spooks

The Year 6 children are having an exciting time writing spooky stories based on the The Highwayman - a narrative poem by Alfred Noyes. At first, the children developed their use of language through creating spooky imagery in poetry. They have built on this to write a range of story openers to grab the their reader's attention and have chosen the best ones to write their own narratives based on the Highwayman. The children have also written about our own in-class ghost, "The Phantom Pen Theif". Have you seen this mysterious spectre?


Cinderella and Rockerfella!

What a night! The Year 6 children and staff presented a fabulous performance of "Cinderella and Rockerfella". Despite a few nerves on the night, everyone took to the stage with gigantic smiles and hilarious jokes. We are very proud of all the children and staff who were involved in the performance and wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! 


A Pilgrimage to the River Ganges

During creative week, Year 6 learnt about Hinduism and the River Ganges. They thought about what Hindus might take with them on a pilgrimage to the sacred River Ganges and why. The class looked at examples of Japa Mala beads that some Hindus use during prayer and they created their own set of mini beads, including a tassle!
