This week year 6 had to use their investigative skills to piece together some clues presented to them about our next English unit of work. The clues included: binoculars, string, a fossil, sand, a map, a footprint and some leaves.
What do you think could have happened?
Broadbent Fold's girls football team had a friendly football match against Gee Cross primary school. They showed great determination and never gave up ending the game 3-2 to Gee Cross. Kasia got player of the match for her fantastic goal keeping skills. Well done to everyone who braved the winter weather and took part.
Year 5 and 6 loved taking part in the quicksticks hockey competition on Wednesday night. Year 6 played Manchester Road and Cannon Burrows winning all of their games without conceeding any goals.
Year 5 lost to St George's 1-0 and drew against Cannon Burrows. Everyone showed great teamwork and some fantastic hockey skills. A special mention to Henry who got MVP for the Year 6 team and Kasia who got given a school games badge for passion. Well done to everyone that played.

As part of our evolution topic, Year 6 planned and carried out a fair and comparative test today to see which 'beak' would collect the most food and survive. The children were independent in choosing their equipment, method and ways to measure their activity.
Who survived and who didn't make it?

During Maths Week England, we had a parent visitor in to talk about how they use maths in their job. We found out about how tax is collected fairly and what tax contributions pay for in our community. We found out that even the children pay tax when they buy certain items like chocolate or computer games.

In Year 6 we looked at geometrical art in preparation for Maths Week England. We used different techniques to create our artwork.
I am so impressed with the final results.
