Year 1 Class Charter

Together, we worked as a class to create five important rights that we all agreed we should have and respect this year. These form our Classroom Charter and help us to create a happy, safe and inclusive classroom where everyone feels valued, listened to and ready to learn. We created ourselves as Superheros to agreed that these rights are respected by everyone in our classroom.


Settling into Year 1

The children have made a fantastic start to Year 1 and have been settling into their new routines beautifully. We have continued to support the transition through continuous provision, table-top activities and short bursts of whole-class learning.


Amazing awards

The Green Tree Schools Award is a Woodland Trust programme that rewards schools for completing environmental activities. At Broadbent Fold we provided the evidence for “Celebrate Extraordinary Trees”, “Connect Pupils with Nature”, “Improve Wellbeing in School” and, “Platinum Projects – A Woodland Perspective”. We are now working on our Platinum with Inside Out Forest School and our amazing staff and pupils. If any families want to help with our projects, please reach out to school.  


Tameside Music Service Assembly

Tameside Music Service came to our school to play some wonderful musical pieces in assembly today! They also discussed the different instruments they used and tested the pupils musical knowledge. 


Meet the librarians

We have selected some fabulous librarians in KS2 who will support Miss Harvey with lunchtime clubs and competitions throughout the year. They will be in charge of keeping our library tidy so let them know if you find anything that looks messy. They have started today by making book boxes to take outside at breaks for extra reading for pleasure. 


Wellbeing Leaders Meeting

Today was the first wellbeing meeting of the year. They Y6 leaders loved meeting the new class leaders and discussed making a school newspaper and enjoyed the team building activity as well. 


Staff Training - Orienteering

Our teachers have had training with the British Orienteering association today. Orienteering is an exciting outdoor adventure sport that exercises mind and body. The aim is to navigate between checkpoints or controls marked on a special orienteering map. There is no set route so the skill and fun come from trying to find the best way to go! In competitive orienteering, the challenge is to complete the course in the quickest time.


Music Mark Recognition!

Tameside Music Service would like to celebrate the value that we place on music at Broadbent Fold Primary School and Nursery and present our school with the Music Mark of Recognition for Dedication & Improvement.We love this and shows clear recognition of our hard work with the music curriculum and our ambition for music in school. Well done to Mrs Tennant our Music Leader. What a start to the year!
