What a super way to start science week today! 

Year 4's science fair started off brilliantly this morning. They were all ready and dressed for the role today and were brilliant. Our first class was reception and they loved it. It's going to be a fun packed 2 days for Year 4 as they are biologists, chemists and physicist. 

In 1994 British Science Week began - 30 years ago. Here at Broadbent Fold we are teaching our future inventors and scientists! Keep an eye on the blog for our workshops, experiments, awe and wonder! 

Well done everyone! Keep up that hard work! 

Our Key Stage 2 classes have created a variety of artwork, based on their current class texts.  Year 3 children have used chalk and pastels to create images of the "Iron Man" and Year 4 have used their portrait skills to draw pictures of Henty VIII's wives from their Tuodor topic.  Year 5 created a newly discovered fruit in their work on "The Explorer".  They sketched real fruit but then painted it an unusual colour to produce a new type.  Year 6 used inspiration from Shaun Tan and his books to design artwork using different techniques.  We are very proud of this amazing artwork!  Well done

What a great day we had in Year 5 for World Book Day!  Children chose to dress as their favourite characters or in comfy clothes!  We had some well-known characters, such as Gangsta Granny, Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz and Michelangelo!  Alex Rider from Stormbreaker and a few Roald Dahl characters, such as an Oompa Loompa, Veruca Salt and the the Grand High Witch, also put in an appearance!  They brought their favourite books and read to the class and we looked at the books on offer for them to spend their £1 Gift Tokens!  Happy World Book Day everyone! 

After a busy week, awards in Year 5 were given for amazing skills in our Football Challenge and fantastic moves in our Haka dance session!  Good to be Green awards were presented to those who have followed our school rules and been Ready Respectful and Safe all week!  Well done everyone!  Mrs Blomeley

What a great day seeing so many girls playing football! Some Year 5 and 6 pupils went to Rayner Stephens to take part in a girls football festival while others played football at breaks and lunchtime. Our amazing Game Changers were awarded their well deserved badges for their dedication to girls football too. 

Year 1 had a fantastic time today for Wolrd Book Day. They loved dressing up as characters from their favourite books - can you guess what any of them are? We also enjoyed sharing our favourite books with each other.

Today, we have celebrated World Book Day and dressed up as a character from one of our favourite books. Some children brought in their favourite book(s) to share with the rest of the class, we have also been designing a new book cover for our class text 'Bee & Me', researching and finding out all about our favourite Author / Poet 'Michael Rosen',  we have been listening to our two favourite poems (Chocolate Cake / Strict) and we have been explaining what we like about them.
