Do you know what this famous Dame did for girls science education? Find out in our next assembly.
Today, the children got their first science lesson in our new topic- digestion. The children were able to identify some organs before the session, knowing that their food went into their stomach but were far more knowledgeable after the lesson. They were able to make connections easily between the teeth and how food is broken down with the stomach, small and large intestines. Inevitably, the children were 'grossed out' with discussing how the body gets rid of waste food!
We are very proud that Evie was featured in the international womens day poster for basketball in Tameside. What a great photo! Thank you for sharing this with us!

Henry VIII visited Year 4 today and was questioned rigorously by the children. They wanted to know about his marriages, his interests, his eating habits and lots more. What a fantastic royal visit.
Our Game Changers led the assembly this morning where they explained what their role was in school and how they got into football; they also discussed how equal access is wanted in girls football by 2024. I cannot wait to see how they continue to inspire girls at Broadbent Fold to take part in football.Tomorrow (8th March) is #letgirlsplay day where lots of girls football tournaments will be run throughout the day. We cannot wait!
We want girls to play football!
It’s time to take a stand, to make a difference.
Girls are an unstoppable force for good if they’re given the chance. The chance to play football.
They want to play in the school curriculum, at breaktime, after school, at local clubs – wherever, whenever they want. No barriers, no stereotypes. Let Girls Play.

The Reading Ambassadors met with me today to choose winners of our 'top hat' design competition. This was very difficult because the standard was so high throughout school. Our winning top hats have been displayed in the KS2 Library.
Our winners are Nursery- Zachary, Reception- Vanessa, Y1- Tobias, Y2- Noah, Y3- Chloe, Y4- Ted, Y5- Oliver and Y6- Mia.
Thank you to everybody who entered the competition.

Year 4 have been working hard to master division. They started off with understanding division as an inverse to multiplication and have progressed onto using a part, part, whole model. Today, they have been dividing numbers with remainders and tomorrow they'll be looking at 3 digit numbers to divide. Some fantastic work.
Soon we will be taking part in British Science Week and we have lots of fun learning opportunities planned throughout school. The theme this year is 'connections.'
What do you know about connections in science? How are body parts connected? How is the world built on connections? How are all animals connected? How is the solar system connected to the sun? Is there someone you have connected with who has inspired or helped you? This could be a famous scientist!
