Year 5 Blog

A big well done to the Year 5 and 6's who represented Broadbent Fold in the tag rugby competition this week. They all did the school proud coming 3rd in their group. They won against Moorside and Greenside 2 and lost to Russell Scott and Manchester Road 1. All pupils showed brilliant teamwork and great sportsmanship. 

Finally the day came for Year 5's visit to Quarry Bank Mill!  Dressed in Victorian clothes, they arrived as a group of poor workhouse children who were about to start as apprentices in the apprentice House.  They learnt about the gruelling jobs they would have to do, the terrible food they'd have to eat and heard tales about the dangers of working in the Mill. The guides were so impressed with Year 5's respectful behaviour and their enthusiasm for learning.  What a brilliant class you are Year 5!  We are very proud of you!  Mrs Blomeley

Broadbent Fold Primary is sharing this competition with parents and children, it would be fantastic if children could enter.

Is your child an aspiring young artist? Enter our competition – and they could win an amazing trip to the Houses of Parliament! 

Years 3, 5 and 6 took part in a poetry workshop with the amazing Michael Rosen on National Poetry Day. We watched Michael perform some of his poetry and joined in along with him. I know that Year 6 particularly enjoyed 'No breathing in class'  Please look at Michael's website for many more poetry ideas and performances: Michael Rosen | Official Website He is certainly inspiring.
