Dance

Year 3 have been putting together different components in their dance lessons. They have a whole class sequence, partner and group dances which we put together into a routine this week.


Roman trip to the Grosvenor Museum in Chester

Year 4 loved their trip to the Grosvenor Museum in Chester!

Their day started with meeting a Roman Centurion and marching to the amphitheatre chanting "Sin, sin, sun, dex, sin!", repeatedly. When we arrived at the amphitheatre, we worked together to make different attacking and defending battle formations and tried to get into position in 2 seconds. 

After, we returned to the museum to look around and also took part in a Roman workshop. One pupil was lucky enough to be dressed up in the Roman soldier armour and helmet! 


Roman Invasion Re-enactment

As part of our History and English lessons, we did a Roman invasion re-enactment on the school playground. We practised marching carrying our rucksacks (heavy weapons that weigh 20kg) chanting "Dex, Sin!", just like the Romans did. We also tried to make different battle formations and took it in turn to be the Centurion leading drills for our century. Finally, we invaded a Celtic village where we learnt the importance of working together. 

We used this activity to help us to write diary entries as Roman soldiers - just wait until you see the finished products!


Tech in Space Live Lesson

This afternoon, Year 4 took part in a live lesson on 'Tech in space' where they learnt lots about how technology is used in space and how it has advanced over the years. They also learnt about possible careers in technology and linked to space. 


Art - Cauliflower card design

Year 6 used the IPads today to help inspire them to design their final Cauliflower Card in Broadbent Fold Primary School. We hope you purchase these for Christmas. 


Music with D&T

We have been studying Lindsey Stirling in music, specifically her musical piece named Shadows. Year 6 are creating their own Shadow Theatres to create a musical story using shadow puppets. This also links in with D&T and Science!
