Alfie worked collaboratively in our tansition workshop- he made a very convincing bully in our workshop!

We loved our picnic today. We got to snack, chat, play games and have fun.
It was lovely for the whole school to be out together.
Year 6 performed a poem by Bill Bilston in assembly today. We first looked at this poem when we did our Windrush topic and it explores refugees. The poem can be read in two directions and at first year 6 were shocked at how racist the poem seemed to be!
Please watch our poem on this link: Year 6 Performance Poetry - YouTube
They performed it fantastically today :)

2 Boards and a Passion Theatre Company worked with year 6 today about their transition to secondary school. After a few warm up games, the children listed their fears and hopes for moving on. They then worked in groups to role play a short sketch about a worst case scenario of their first day. We had bullying, hard work, strict teachers, being late, forgetting homework and many more fears. After performing their sketches, year 6 played a game called 'yes but...' where they thought of solutions to all of their worst fears.

What a wonderful momentous occasion as Broadbent Fold celebrated turning 50. So many past teachers and pupils turned up to celebrate. We shared an assembly, planted a tree and a time capsule and enjoyed a slice of cake and a cup of tea reminiscing. What a fantastic morning we all had.
What a way to end sports week with a visit from GB sprinter Andy Robertson to give out our sporting awards! There was lots of excellent sportsmanship shown over the course of this week with lots of children learning new skills. Thank you Andy for coming in to give out the awards and answer all our questions about what it is like to be an elite athlete.
