Year 5 are learning about the importance of air resistance and aerodynamics in their Forces topic in Science! We observed a crumpled ball of paper being thrown and compared it with our streamlined paper aeroplanes. They flew much further and fell to the ground slower. Year 5's next experiment is to design a parachute for an egg astronaut! The challenge is for it to fall to the ground slowly, and land intact! Their parachutes are now in the design stage.

Broadbent Fold worked together to get 3961 points and successfully travel to the North Pole. Pupils and staff were tasked to try to complete 5 minutes of active travel every day where possible and every day they managed got a point for school. All children who managed to get at least 4 points were given a key ring as a prize. We had so many children complete their active travel every day that we had to raffle the top 3 prizes. Well done to everyone that took part!

During their Spy topic, Year 5 worked extremely hard to perfect their Spy Narratives, which they wrote with Year 3 as their audience. They created spies, villains and suitable settings for their adventures to take place! Children from Year 3 enjoyed the story telling and they had the opportunity afterwards to identify the characters from the drawings that Year 5 had drawn! Thank you everyone for being such brilliant writers and listeners! Mrs Blomeley
