The whole school have been studying important black historical figures.

We all hope in the future for an equal society, where regardless of the colour of our skin, we are treated fairly and with respect.

It was the third and final week of the cross country this Saturday and it certainly was feeling more like cross country weather but that didn't stop the pupils from Broadbent Fold. We had some amazing results with children knocking a minute off their time from previous weeks, pupils finishing in higher ranked positions and we even had George win the Under 9 boys race!

Year 3 are very exciting to be starting The Linking Schools Project.

Year 4, inspired by their Roman topic, created people in motion and produced some great Roman Soldiers! Year 5 have been learning about the lives of poor Victorian children who had to work for a living. They used the medium of charcoal to create their images of grubby chimney sweeps. Year 6 have produced some fantastic work, inspired by street artists Keith Haring and Banksy. We are very proud of our
