Learning carousel

Today in Year 1, we moved around a carousel of activities including practising our phonics, creating art work by Henri Mattise, Wassily Kandinsky and George Surrat.


Author Spotlight

The Reading Ambassadors set the whole school a challenge to research a famous author to share in assembly. Today each class shared some facts about their chosen authors including Michael Rosen, Francesca Simon, Tom Fletcher, Jeff Kinney, Katherine Rundell and Tony Bradman.

Thank you for sharing your facts and please look out for these author books in our library.

 Well done to this weeks Head-Teacher and Good to be Green award winners, super effort. Well done to the 4 children who have received their bronze award for reaching 100 star points! Well done to T and W who have been very busy at their after-school clubs (football and Scouts). Well done you two, outstanding effort!


Walk to the North Pole

Broadbent Fold worked together to get 3961 points and successfully travel to the North Pole. Pupils and staff were tasked to try to complete 5 minutes of active travel every day where possible and every day they managed got a point for school. All children who managed to get at least 4 points were given a key ring as a prize. We had so many children complete their active travel every day that we had to raffle the top 3 prizes. Well done to everyone that took part!


Enjoying and decoding

This week, we have fully immersed ourselves into our class text 'How to Grow a Dinosaur.' The children have loved doing lots of predicting before revealing what happens next in the story. Well done Year 1!
