Broadbent Fold vs Yew Tree

It was a very busy night for our football teams with both the boys team and girls team playing against Yew Tree Primary School.

The girls team showed great teamwork and communication skills winning their match 1-0. 

The boys team showed great perseverance throughout their match but lost 3-2. Harley was the player of the match for his fantastic defending skills. 

Well done to everyone that played and thank you to Yew Tree for organising the matches. 


Cross Country Grand Prix

Lots of pupils braved the cold on Saturday morning for the first cross country race this year. I was so impressed with the sportsmanship of everyone who took part and how everyone was cheering the pupils who were racing on.

A HUGE THANK YOU to those people who sent in photographs for our "Numbers in Real Life" display!  We received some amazing photographs from all around the country, proving that numbers are absolutely everywhere around us!  Here are just a few of the photographs we received.  Thank you again.  Mrs Blomeley


Tag Rugby Competition

A big well done to the Year 5 and 6's who represented Broadbent Fold in the tag rugby competition this week. They all did the school proud coming 3rd in their group. They won against Moorside and Greenside 2 and lost to Russell Scott and Manchester Road 1. All pupils showed brilliant teamwork and great sportsmanship. 


Stars of the week

Congratulations to Reuben and Ethan in year 6 this week.

Reuben has persevered with long multiplication looking at 4 digit numbers multiplied by 2 digit numbers. This is not always easy as there many steps to follow so well done Reuben.

Ethan has written an incredible balanced argument about whether home schooling is good for children. I am impressed with his formal vocabulary and detailed viewpoints.

Well done to Sophie and Niamh who won the good to be green raffle for following the school values.


World Space Week

Year 6 have enjoyed World Space Week. We visited the planetarium on Monday. The children were amazed at how realistic it was and loved finding out lots of interesting facts about space. We have also looked at space texts in our guided reading this week. The children have then looked at some artwork by artist Peter Thorpe and created their own 'out of this world' pictures. I will upload some pictures of their finished artwork next week.
