Cricket champions

Our trophy was delivered that the fantastic Year 5 and 6 cricket team won. It's even too big to fit inside our trophy cabinet so is sat on top. Well done to everyone who competed, you made Broadbent Fold very proud! 


Handwriting Winners Summer 1

A huge well done to our handwriting winners this half term. I am so impressed with the standard of writing which is now proudly on display outside Mrs Parker's room. 

Please have a look at some of their incredible work. I hope you enjoy using using your new handwriting pencil. 


Science challenge- what is this?

Can you guess what is in the picture this time? 

Can you describe the colour, texture and shapes that you can see? Does it remind you of anything?

If you think you know the answer write it down with your name and give it to Miss Harvey. 


Explorify...

Well done to those who guessed correctly today- it was a starfish!

Did you know that a starfish is not actually a fish and it cannot swim? It is an echinoderm which uses its suckers to crawl across the ocean floor. 


Book Look

Thank you for parents and carers who attended our book look. It was very successful and really nice to see faces in school again.

Outdoor Learning Day in Year 5!

Year 5 spent their outdoor learning time today searching for materials for their Design & Technology project!  Their objective is to build a habitable structure, that is suitable to live on an island, whilst providing shade from the sun and protection from the wind and the rain!  The class are currently at the design stage but they're looking forward to building and testing their structures!   Mrs Blomeley


Passion Fruit Tasting in Year 5!

In Year 5's class text, Kensuke's Kingdom, the main character, Michael, has been trying some exotic fruits!  Today, Year 5 sampled some passion fruit!   This egg shaped, purple fruit  has a variety of benefits, including Vitamin A, Vitamin C, fibre and other nutrients!  Most children enjoyed it, even if it was a little tangy!  Mrs Blomeley


Cricket champions

Broadbent Fold had a fantastic afternoon at the cricket and we had lovely weather for a change too! In the first round we played Arlies Primary School winning the game 79-49. We then played Bradley Green Primary Academy and won 85-42 putting us in the final.
