Health and Nutrition

Year 4 started their healthy eating lesson today by identifying and classifying foods into the correct food groups. They then got the chance to look at the school menu and to unpick which meals included elements from all 5 food groups. There was lots of discussion about how healthy some meals actually were. 


Art fit for a King!

All of the children in Key Stage 2 have worked so hard to transform our Art Gallery into a celebration of the forthcoming Coronation of King Charles III.  They have used different medium to create their images; Year 3 used digital media to produce their versions of crowning King Charles, Year 4 used their portrait skills, Year 5 created new Royal crests by researching the King's hobbies and Year 6 chose stained glass windows as a backdrop for their amazing portraits. Well done everyone!  


Visit from Ash Randall

Everyone at Broadbent Fold loved their visit from freestyle footballer Ash Randall today. He holds 25 records in the Guinness book of Records and spoke to everyone about the importance of not giving up as he has been practising for 17 years. Ash Randall taught some of our pupils and even Miss Lewis and Miss Mainprize some new tricks. Thank you for your visit Ash! 


The Hive North

Broadbent Fold had the enormous pleasure to have a visit from The Hive North this afternoon. They were here to perform a play about how families are all different. The children had an amazing time being trainee zoo keepers and completely interacting with the performance. Thank you so much for  a fabulous afternoon. 


The Great Big School Clean

The Great Big School Clean campaign runs from 17th March to the 2nd April 2023. I have pledged that as a school we can collect 12 bags of rubbish.  Hopefully we can collect more! 

Well done to all of the children who have already started litter picking on their way to school and around the school grounds.  You are doing a fantastic job to help the environment! 


A massive welcome to Ash.

Broadbent Fold welcomed Ash today who is freestyle footballer. He is an expert at tricks and skills with a football and became a Guinness World Record holder by practising for over 17 years, up to 5 hours a day. The children even got the chance to have a go at some of the tricks too. What a fantastic assembly!


#letgirlsplay

The snow didn't stop our girls taking part in #letgirlsplay last week. It was lovely to see so many girls in KS1 and KS2 taking part in our girls football tournaments. A big thank you to our Year 6 Game Changers in making the #letgirlsplay events successful and encouraging lots of other girls to play football.


Jane Goodall

As part of our English work, we have been researching Jane Goodall who has observed chimpanzees in the wild for over 40 years and has changed the way people think about them. She is an activist and conservationist, teaching society about the importance of saving habitats and how closely related humans are to chimpanzees.  Read all about her in our biographies that will be posted next week.


Super Science

To aid the children's memory of the organs and functions of the digestive system, Year 4 got the chance to make a life size model of the digestive system today, using one of their friends. It was lots of fun.
