Year 3 have been using great team work skills to design their own maps using orienteering symbols. Children then directed other groups using their maps and direction.
Today, children learnt to communicate clearly and how listening was very important within their group.It is important that everyone has their own views and cooperation is crucial.

The Eco leaders would like to launch a competition to design a new sign for our blue paper bins in school. They would like the sign to explain why it is important to recycle paper - e.g. Save the world, recycle your paper. The sign should be eye catching and colourful on A4 paper. Please send your entries into school by Friday 4th November and the Eco leaders will be choosing the winners from each class.

We have started to develop our diverse section of books in the KS2 Library and in our KS1 classrooms. We are very excited about the range of books that we have added to our library. These include books, characters and authors from the Black, African and Minority Ethnic community and books which celebrate characters who are neurodiverse.
Have a look in the KS2 Library for our new books with the brown sticker bands.
October is Black History Month. At Broadbent Fold we continue to raise awareness of equality and diversity. Check out our year group blogs to see which significant black individual each class has been studying. We are here to learn from the past to make a difference to our present day and our future for everyone.

What a fun lesson we've had today experimenting with mirrors! We used mirrors to write secret messages. We also played a game where we had to use mirrors to find out what letter or word our partner wrote and stuck to our back. We investigated if light really travels in straight lines by shining a torch on a mirror and looking where it was reflected on the ceiling.
We are celebrating World Space Week at Broadbent Fold. Look out for our competitions set by our Science Leader Miss Harvey. How do astronauts do their cleaning? With a vacuum!What's an astronaut's favourite tea? Gravitea!Where do astronauts train? At universe-ity!
