DFE Attendance Filming.

It's been an exciting day in school today as we took part in a film for the Department for Education on school attendance. It shows the value of school and shows how it’s more than schoolwork. Being in school can help children build resilience, learn social skills, boost their confidence, and teach them that they can do hard things. In short, this is about the social and emotional benefits of school, which we put at the heart of at Broadbent Fold. Thank you for all staff and parents for taking part.

Fruit kebabs

This half term, the children have been busy re-searching different types of fruits and exploring their colours, textures, and patterns. As part of this learning, they designed their own repeating pattern fruit kebabs, carefully thinking about how to arrange the fruits in a sequence.

Today, the children put their ideas into practice by using their Design and Technology (D&T) skills to prepare their ingredients. They learned how to safely peel and chop a variety of fruits, showing great care and independence.

Making Sandwiches

Today, the children took part in a fun and practical activity as part of their Design and Technology learning. They made their own chocolate spread sandwiches while developing important skills. The children followed a set of instructions carefully, learning about the correct order of steps needed to make their sandwich. They practised spreading the chocolate carefully, assembling their sandwich, and talking about the process they followed.


British Science week

To celebrate British Science Week, we took part in an exciting investigation based around the question: “How far can a paper aeroplane fly?”
