Pupil Leaders worked with Mrs Parker today on our Anti-Bullying Policy. They had excellent ideas of how to prevent this happening in school. They also created support for if it does happen what to do. They said - Don't be a bully, be a buddy! 

Look at how fantastic some of our Year 4 diary writing is. The children didn't just imagine being Roman soldiers, but they wrote in chronological order explaining what they did and how they felt. I was highly impressed by the use of fronted adverbials. Well done everyone. 

The librarians have already started their roles so well. They have made sure the KS1 and KS2 libraries are tidy. They have organised lunch time boxes of reading books for children to read at lunch time. They also run a lunch time Library Club where they read, play games and make book marks.

They are all already wonderful! 

The Year 5 and 6 Broadbent Fold girls football team have had a great start to the year! They played in the Pokémon tournament against Flowery Field and St Mary's, Dukinfield winning both games 1-0. The girls showed great promise and have really developed their defensive skills . Well done girls!

Year 1 have been reading the Supertato book and had lots of fun making their very own Supertato's to save the day. Keep a look out for Evil Pea everyone!

Year 4 started their first activity in learning how to draw people in action. They loved making their stick men come to life. 

Year 4 have been working really hard at understanding numbers and their place value. Today, they had the opportunity to compare 5 digit numbers using the place value discs and place value dice. 

Year 5 were fortunate to welcome a humanist speaker into the class today!  Kevin explained how his philosophy was to treat others the way we would like to be treated ourselves.  We watched a video about animals helping each other by instinct, which provoked some very interesting debates!  Year 5 asked some sensible and thoughtful questions and Kevin was extremely impressed with their behaviour and their enquiring minds!  Thank you to Mrs Slate, our RE Leader, for organising our visitor!  Mrs Blomeley

We had a very interesting visit today from a humanist. We found out that humanism is a way of living that encourages humans to show love and care for other humans. We learned a lot and the class had some very interesting questions to ask.

I am very excited to work with our new KS2 Reading Ambassadors. They will help me run competitions and challenges over the year to encourage reading for pleasure. 

They have already been set their first challnege...to make a poster about reading to be displayed in our school library and on the Tameside Library Twitter (now X) feed.

I am very excited to work with them all this year.
