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! 


Visit from an Architect

A huge thank you to Daisy's Dad who came into school today to talk about his job as an architect. He challenged the class to build the tallest tower they could out of spaghetti and marshmallows that would stay together when the tables were wobbled. I think we have lots of aspiring architects now!


Visit from a Sports Journalist and Radio Presenter

Today, we were lucky enough to have a visit from a sports journalist and radio presenter from Tameside Radio. We learnt how it is important To be confident in the careers we choose and that we need to pick something that we enjoy doing. We are going to look out for our guests on the radio and in the local paper!


Visit from a Nurse/Endoscopist

A big thank you to Isla's mum who came into school to talk to us about her job as a nurse and endoscopist. The children loved role playing doctors and nurses and getting to test their blood pressure and measure their heart rate. They even learnt how to put slings and bandages on each other.

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.

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.  


Year 4 Writing

Year 4 wrote Mrs Parker lots of letters to presuade her (or not) to climb a mountain and raise monies for school. She replied to every letter and commented on how excellent they are were. She would love to climb a mountain, aslong as year 4 joined her!
