Year 5 had a fantastic time in science week making their lemon volcanoes at Rayner Stevens Secondary School. They all used their scientific skills to make excellent predictions and learnt lots of new scientific vocabulary. Well done Year 5!

On Thursday 13th March, Year 5 went to Rayner Stevens science lab and did an experiment called ‘Lemon Volcanoes.’ The Citric Acid in the lemon reacted with the Bicarbonate of Soda to make the lemon erupt like a volcano. It became all foamy and frothy and we used food colouring to make it look colourful. We also learnt some new key vocabulary and wrote the investigation up. We used: a lemon, a plastic knife, a tray, a lollypop stick, a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda, food colouring and fairy liquid. It was such a fun day and we enjoyed it very much.

Today, we completed our 'Challenge Me' challenge, where we had to throw and catch a ball with one hand. We praticed with our strongest hand, our weaker hand, then a combination of both and then with a partner. We all managaed to complete the challenge!
The boys had a fantastic match tonight against St Stephens RC. Both teams played well with St Stephens RC scoring the first goal of the match however Broadbent Fold pulled it back to win the game 2-1 and qualify for the quarter finals.
Broadbent Fold took part in a dodgeball competition against other schools in Tameside. They came 2nd in their heat beating Corrie and Mottram but losing to Russell Scott. A special well done to Aarron who got a school games badge for showing good teamwork throughout the competition.

Look at our fabulous World Book Day costumes! Can you name any of the characters/books you can see? We also had the privilege of meeting Author ‘Michael Thame’ who has written books about World War Two from his Great Grandad ‘Tom’ experience. We got to ask lots of questions and discuss his books/experience with us. We have discussed our favourite books/characters and we will be making our own books marks and designing a new front cover for our class book.
