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.

Year 4 have been researching famous scientist in our computing work. Look at how well they used their Microsoft Word skills to showcase their famous scientist. They are becoming adept at adding a border, changing font, colour and underlying their work. The tricky bit was inserting a picture and they did that with ease. Well done everyone.

Look at some of Year 4's homework projects. They have worked so hard to ensure they replicated a Celtic roundhouse. Some children even went foraging for sticks to make the roof. I was impressed by them all and loved the creativity- especially the baked, clay, miniature and computerised roundhouses. Exceptional work Year 4.
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!

World Space Week begins on 4th October and Thursday 6th October is National Poetry Day.
We are going to combine them together for our new competition for Y1-6.
I would like you to create a space themed poem. This could be about the planets, our solar system or maybe you want to make a poem about aliens.
Present your poem colourfully and you may win a prize in your class. Hand your completed poem to your teacher by Friday 14th October and the winners will be announced in assembly in the final week of the half term.
Good luck.
Miss Harvey
