Brunch with Mrs P

These superstars have remained on green all this half term. This means they have followed our school values being ready, respectful and safe every day. A big thank you to them for their hard work. They were chosen to have a yummy brunch with donuts, cakes, crisps and pop. They stuffed their faces and played some great tunes to listen to - Micheal Jackson's Bad was the favourite - they are certainly not bad! 


Our new sensory room...The Cosy Cave.

The name of the new sensory room is...The Cosy Cave. As voted and created by our pupils. We are having a special sign created for this. The old computing room in KS2 has been cleared of all IT equipment, repainted and new furniture and resources have been purchased to make a calming space. We just wanted send an enormous thank you to our community your generosity developing our new sensory room. We also want to thank Lifeline4Kids, who also donated to the room, which again is fantastic.


Outdoor art- Andy Goldsworthy

Children were very creative and imaginative whilst outside today. 

There art work was based on the artist and sculptures of Andy Goldsworthy.

Their wellbeing on Wellbeing Wednesday most definitely improved by being outside in our school grounds. 

 


Careers Fair

This week is Careers Week at Broadbent Fold. We have engineers, a Team GB athlete, a sports journalist, scientists and designers attending our school to inspire our pupils to a world of employment. We held a careers fair and pupils had the opportunity to ask questions to our visitors. A big thank you to the magistrates, mental health practitioner, GMP, Findel Education, Ashton Sixth Form and the Director of Sports from the Stamford Park Trust. It was a fantastic morning and our pupils fully engaged with all the information to help them with their own future.  


Careers’ fair

Year 3 enjoyed visiting the careers' fair. Thanks to Dental team, school nurses, magistrates courts and Ashton 6th Form.


Sponsored Walk

What an amazing turn out for our sponsored walk this morning. It was a fantastic event that raised £2,833.50 for our sensory room. Thank you everyone for joining us. 


Fund Raising Thank You

I have just had the privilege of counting the money raised for our sponsored walk on Monday. Well, what can I say? You have raised £2,618.50 so far by sponsoring your child to walk around Gorse Hall. The Year 6 children have mapped the route this morning and are eager to marshal the event. We are so grateful for your generosity. Whenever you pop into school, please have a look at how our sensory room is developing.  I look forward to seeing a lot of you on Monday morning when you join us on the sponsored walk. Dress up warmly as there is a slight chance of rain.

Year 2 sharing Bible stories

Year 2 have enjoyed sharing some of the resources that Broadbent Fold have for Christianity.  Children reread and shared stories from The Bible.

Our school received The Jerusalem Trust Grant Last year and this has enabled school to purchase resources such as Bibles, religious themed stories and special objects linked to these stories.
