Computing in Year 5 - Creating Databases!

Year 5's task today was to create their own paper based version of a record card database!  They learnt that a database is a collection of organised data that is usually stored on a computer. Each group were asked to sort the records of their databases alphabetically and then  select different criteria to answer questions.  They showed great team work throughout the task!  They are looking forward to our next lesson when we move onto databases on the computers!  Well done Year 5!


PE

Today in PE, year 2 have been practising their standing long jump, speed jumps and shuttle runs. 


Swimming Gala

 Well done to our year 5 and 6s who represented Broadbent Fold in the Tameside Swimming Gala. Pupils swam so fast and we even had a couple of 1st places! We came 6th overall and the pupils were a great team supporting and cheering each other on. We are very proud. 


Anderton Centre fun

Year 6 have had a fabulous day at the Anderton Centre today.

We have been on the low ropes, traverse climbing and crate stacking this morning.

This afternoon the children went off down the lake on their canoes. They then daringly jumped in the water from the jetty.

We had a few tired snoozers on the coach journey home.

Well done year 6 you were amazing today! 


Year 5 Awards!

Well done to Year 5 - they have all been award winners lately!  Especially for making us all proud when they visited Yorkshire Wildlife Park recently!  More  Headteacher's awards, Good to be Green and Silver awards followed this week!  Mrs Blomeley

Y6 Star of the week 24-6-22

Today Year 6 were presented with a special, keep-sake dictionary from the Rotary Club.

Our stars of the week are Ellie and Brooke.

Ellie always produces homework to a great standard. She has created a chocloate cake in her creative homework task and this week she produced a fabulous persuasive advert for her cake. 

Brooke is a fabulous mathematician. She has really understood how to analyse and draw pie charts accurately this week.

Annabelle and Maisie won our 'good to be green' pencils for staying on green.


Magistrates in the commnunity

Year 6 were joined by two local magistrates this week to learn about how the court system works. 

The children took part in a quiz to test their knowledge and learn new information. We looked at how magistrate and crown courts are different. We found out that the 'Magna Carta' rule means we must be tried by our peers which is why magistrates are not legally trained. 

It was very interesting. 


Rotary Club Presentation

The Rotary Club presented our year 6 pupils with a Dictionary for Life. These lovely gifts were presented by Angela Robbins

Tameside Rotary President 221/22, Joyce Howarth and Brian Travis in our assembly today.
