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. 

Year 5 started their learning journey in Rounders yesterday, by practising their throwing and catching skills.  We finished off the session by playing a game of Danish Long Ball, which the children enjoyed.  It also demonstrated their excellent teamwork skills!  Mrs Blomeley

Awards in Year 5 this week were given for always being a superstar with beautiful manners and a great attitude,  and for showing enthusiasm with a brilliant start to our new Science topic!  Good to be Green awards, as always, were given for following our school rules of being Ready, Respectful and Safe.  The whole class have made an excellent start to Year 5 this half term!  Well done everyone!  Mrs Blomeley
