Yesterday, Year 5 stepped back in time to the Victorian era when they visited George Street Chapel in Oldham! Whilst there, they met with real characters from Victorian times who explained about many aspects of the hard life that Victorians were faced with. In the afternoon, Year 5 enjoyed taking part in some fun and interesting activities including handwriting with ink, playing historical detectives, making peg dolls and completing a challenging jigsaw! Well done Year 5 - you were amazing! Mrs Blomeley

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.

Broadbent Fold's girls football team had a fantastic first match of the season beating St Mary's 1-0. It was the first time a lot of the girls had ever played a football match but they all got stuck in and showed brilliant team work and their football skills really improved throughout the match. The player of the match this game was Kasia for her brilliant goal keeping skills and also for helping lots of the new girls on the team. Well done girls!

Year 5 were lucky to welcome Tiny (the White Rose Maths mascot) to the classroom this week! Under Tiny's watchful eyes, they learnt about the Power of 10, using Gattegno charts to help them multiply or divide by multiples of 10. Mrs Blomeley

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
