Science Fair 2022

We are incredibly proud of our Year 6 class who worked really hard to organise and run the Science Fair today. They were superb role models for our younger children and have shared their scientific knowledge so well all morning. Please look through the photographs.

Year 3 children really enjoyed visiting Science fair in Year 6 classroon. Year 6 children shared their knowledge and explained the science behind the activities they were running. We would like to thank Miss Harvey and all the Year 6 children for organising this special treat for us. 


Friday Awards in Year 3

A big well done to our stars of the week who have received the Head Teacher's Award for their hard work and attitude to learning. Our Good to Be Greeen lottery winners have followed our school rules of being Ready, Respectful and Safe. Our Silver Award winner has collected 100 star points. 


Science Boffins for British Science Week

On Tuesday the Science Boffin Vicki visited Broadbent Fold as part of British Science Week.

During the assembly we watched paper disappear when she lit it on fire - this is special paper called 'flash paper' 

Miss Harvey was kindly volunteered to have water tipped on her head... luckily the water had disappeared from the cup. This was because slush powder was in the bottom of the cup- this is a special powder which absorbs water. This is what is used in disposable nappies. 


Science Week In Year 3

This year Science Week's theme is Growth. Today, Year 3 children planted some pepper, carrot, lettuce and tomato seeds. We also set up a spring onion growth investigation. It involved measuring (amount of water, lenght and circumference of the spring onions) and cutting. We put our spring onions in water and placed them outside. We will be observing them for the next 2 weeks and recording our finding. 

We aslo planted some cress seeds and placed them in different conditions to find out what seeds and plants need to grow. 

Keep checking our blog for updates on our plants. 


Litter Picking

Our year 5 pupils are helping keep our grounds safe and clear. Each week a group of helpful pupils help me make our school tidy. Thank you year 5! 


Amazing Art

This week we've been practising our drawing skills. First we learnt how to use sketching pencils for shading to show shadows and create 3D effect. We practised drawing 3D shapes as well as scraws and bolts. Today we followed a tutorial to draw The Iron Man. We think you agree that our drawings look amazing!

Next week we will turn our drawings into animation.
