Tag Rugby competition

We loved taking part in the tag rugby competition today with our A team coming 2nd and our B team coming 4th in our group. The A team won a match against Broadbent Fold B team, drew against Pinfold and lost to Aldwyn Primary School. Our B team also played against Aldwyn and Pinfold primary schools and were fantastic at tagging the other teams.  

Lots of tries were scored, lots of sliding in the mud and lots of fun by all. Well done everyone, you did Broadbent Fold proud!

Some of our Year 5 and 6 children had a great morning taking part in a Panathlon ten pin bowling competition. They showed great teamwork and were very supportive of one another's achievements. A special mention to Macy who got the first strike of the competition. Well done everyone, you did Broadbent Fold proud!


Bikeability Day 1 in Year 5!

What a great first day of Bikeability Year 5 has had!  They started with fitting their helmets properly and moved on to doing an "M" check on their bikes!  After practising their signalling and stopping skills, most of the class moved on to the roads in the afternoon to learn Primary and Secondary positions, as well as learning about T-junctions!  Back again for more tomorrow to hopefully complete their Bikeability 2 badges!  Fantastic behaviour from everyone concerned.  Well done Year 5!  I am very proud of you all!  Mrs Blomeley
