Cross Country Grand Prix Week 3

It was the third and final week of the cross country this Saturday and it certainly was feeling more like cross country weather but that didn't stop the pupils from Broadbent Fold. We had some amazing results with children knocking a minute off their time from previous weeks, pupils finishing in higher ranked positions and we even had George win the Under 9 boys race! It was lovely to see the Broadbent Fold community come together with pupils and parents all cheering on and supporting children in the different races.


Tag Rugby competition

We loved taking part in the tag rugby competition today with our A team coming 2nd and our B team coming 4th in our group. The A team won a match against Broadbent Fold B team, drew against Pinfold and lost to Aldwyn Primary School. Our B team also played against Aldwyn and Pinfold primary schools and were fantastic at tagging the other teams.  

Lots of tries were scored, lots of sliding in the mud and lots of fun by all. Well done everyone, you did Broadbent Fold proud! 


Broadbent Fold vs Our Lady’s

Our Year 5 and 6 boys football team had a tough match with a loss against Our Lady's in the Alan Millea cup. They showed great perseverance and did the school proud showing great sportsmanship throughout. Well done boys!
