Freddy Fit Fun

On Friday, Year 3 and 4 loved their session with Freddy Fit. 

They showed great resilience in the speed bounce, amazing flexibility in the limbo challenge and had lots of fun doing lots of different fitness exercises. Well done everyone!


Young Ambassadors

Here are our Young Ambassadors for this school year! Their role is to help promote sport and PE across school. They have already been very busy in KS1 running lots of diffferent games at lunch time. They completed their training last week and got to meet GB sprinter, Andy Robertson who was a Young Ambassador when he was at school. 

We cannot wait to see their ideas in action!


Game Changers

Here are our Game Changers for this school year! Their role is to help ensure equal access in sport for girls and boys, especially in football.

They attended training last week and already have so many ideas for things we can do at school. The Game Changers look very smart in their new hoodies!

We cannot wait to see the impact they have across school in ensuring equal access in sport. 


No Pens Day 2024

Next week on Wednesday 27th November the whole school will take part in No Pens Day. This is a day to recognise that there are many different ways to communicate and not all people find talking and understanding words easy. Communication is vital for young people to thrive and difficulties in this can make children feel sad and isolated. During No Pens Day we will look at alternative ways to communicate like using gestures, facial expressions, codes and sign language. It will also be a fun way to practise our oracy and speaking and listening skills which is so important. 


The Great Broadbent Fold Bake Off!

Thank you to the PTFA for organising our Bake Off! Pupils had created some wonderful cakes and biscuits - our winners are above 1. Aubrey and Elwin's rainbow LGBTQ+ cake 2. Teddy with his cookie monsters! 3. Chloe's spy cakes linked to her class topic. 


Writing our own graphic scores

We created our own graphic scores in Music for our chosen colour peony pink using the word bank we created last week. We had to choose our own instruments, rhythm and then draw the graphic score to represent this. We discussed how layering sounds on top of each other would produce a better song but to make sure we didn't use too many instruments at once. We tried playing each others graphic scores to see if we interpreted the rhythm correctly. We then added dynamics to our composition using the relevant symbols to describe the changes in volume for our piece of music. 


Reading Ambassador meeting with Tameside Library

Today our Reading Ambassadors had their first meeting with Lisa from Tameside Library. First they shared all of the posters that were entered into the competition- thank you to members of Year 5 and Year 2 for your poster entries. Please see their posters attached. Then they had a book quiz all about the library and different children's fiction and authors. Then we were set our next reading mission- details will be shared very soon...
