Year 6 are really enjoying their P4C sessions on extremism. This week we have looked at our own identity and what it is to be a human. I have been impressed with their sensible approach to these sessions and how they discuss and listen to each other's viewpoints.
Some Year 5 and 6 pupils took part in a basketball competition tonight and they were amazing and have qualified for the finals next week! They showed great teamwork, encouraging and supporting one another, and were determined throughout. They beat Micklehurst B team 6-0, Greswell A team 4-0, Manchester Road A team 6-0 and Arlies B team 2-0.
Amazing job everyone - bring on the finals next week!

Year 6 have been enjoying their dodgeball sessions in PE this half term. Yesterday we played some 'Character Dodgeball'. Different children adopted different characters to use to their advantage in the game such as Dr Dodgeball who can resuscitate members who are out and the Golden baller who knocks out the whole team if they hit one person.
Great skills year 6!

All of the children in Key Stage 2 have worked so hard to transform our Art Gallery into a celebration of the forthcoming Coronation of King Charles III. They have used different medium to create their images; Year 3 used digital media to produce their versions of crowning King Charles, Year 4 used their portrait skills, Year 5 created new Royal crests by researching the King's hobbies and Year 6 chose stained glass windows as a backdrop for their amazing portraits. Well done everyone!

Everyone at Broadbent Fold loved their visit from freestyle footballer Ash Randall today. He holds 25 records in the Guinness book of Records and spoke to everyone about the importance of not giving up as he has been practising for 17 years. Ash Randall taught some of our pupils and even Miss Lewis and Miss Mainprize some new tricks. Thank you for your visit Ash!

Well done to our Stars this week Kasia and Sam.
Kasia has fantastic leadership qualities as a Sports Ambassador. She is a great advocate for women and girls playing football and her passion for this comes across so well. She is also a great helper when working in KS1 at lunchtimes playing games and supporting younger children. I was also impressed with her leadership skills last week helping to lead a PE lesson in year 6.

Broadbent Fold had the enormous pleasure to have a visit from The Hive North this afternoon. They were here to perform a play about how families are all different. The children had an amazing time being trainee zoo keepers and completely interacting with the performance. Thank you so much for a fabulous afternoon.
The Great Big School Clean campaign runs from 17th March to the 2nd April 2023. I have pledged that as a school we can collect 12 bags of rubbish. Hopefully we can collect more!
Well done to all of the children who have already started litter picking on their way to school and around the school grounds. You are doing a fantastic job to help the environment!
