As part of our oracy work Year 3 played Opinion Continuum this week. In our class text Carrie's War evacuated child Nick is almost beaten by his host family for stealing a biscuit. We discussed the question 'Is it ever okay to steal?' We had some scenarios and we had to decide if we agreed, disagreed or were somewhere in the middle of both. We had an interesting discussion- well done year 3.

Year 6 really engaged with our Coping with Exam Stress workshop today. I hope they apply some of the strategies we discussed to support them if they feel stressed. 

What a great brain break activity for Year 6 to have during SATs practise. 

Nursery are taking part in the Mini London Marathon. Over the next week we will run for a total of 2 miles to achieve their badges. Go Nursery!

Year 6 highly enjoyed playing Rounders today in the sun.

We used to oil pastels to create a forest pathway scenery.

What a great way to improve our writing, sitting in the sun with a friend. Great work Year 6- I look forward to reading your writing. 

Broadbent Fold were lucky to have a visit today from Mad Science today to deliver us an interactive assembly on 'What you should know about H2O' where we learnt all about solids, liquids and gases and how water is the only thing that can change between all three. We also learnt how water gets from the sea to our tap through the water cycle. We had some fantastic volunteers who showed us how water is checked to make sure it is clean enough to drink and the role that engineers and scientists play in this.

What a treat that Nikki from Mad Science came to school today. She completed lots of experiments about water. What a fun way to start the day.
