Year 1 went on a trip to Gorse Hall to see where Beatrix Potter's grandparents, John and Jane Leech, built the Gorse Hall mansion in 1836 of which the ruins can still be seen today. We were amazed to see photos of what the mansion used to look like and how they used to travel by horse and carriage.

Year 1 loved taking part in the Science Fair today. A big thank you to Year 6 for running it. They were brilliant at getting the pupils to make predictions and perform the tests to see if they were right.

This half term Year 1 have researched different types of fruit and designed their own fruit kebab using a repeated pattern. They then used their cutting skills to create their own fruit kebabs. Which one do you think looks the tastiest?

Year 6 have had a fabulous day hosting the Science Fair this year. We have worked with KS1 and KS2 to investigate, research and consolidate our scientific learning across the school. We have explored magnets, electricity, scents, fingerprints, chemical reactions, famous inventors, space and beyond, rocks and fossils, light and shadow and human organs.
Thank you Year 6 you were fantastic leaders today and I am very proud of you all.

Year 1 had a fabulous time in Forest School moving the wood chip around the young trees. This helps to keep the roots warm which makes the trees grow more easily. It also stops the grass from growing around the trees.

All of the children in Key Stage 2 have worked so hard to transform our Art Gallery into a celebration of the forthcoming Coronation of King Charles III. They have used different medium to create their images; Year 3 used digital media to produce their versions of crowning King Charles, Year 4 used their portrait skills, Year 5 created new Royal crests by researching the King's hobbies and Year 6 chose stained glass windows as a backdrop for their amazing portraits. Well done everyone!

Everyone at Broadbent Fold loved their visit from freestyle footballer Ash Randall today. He holds 25 records in the Guinness book of Records and spoke to everyone about the importance of not giving up as he has been practising for 17 years. Ash Randall taught some of our pupils and even Miss Lewis and Miss Mainprize some new tricks. Thank you for your visit Ash!
