Safer Internet Day 2025

 



This week at Broadford, KS2 celebrated Safer Internet Day by joining Schools from across the Country in a live lesson and becoming 'Scam Smashers'. The theme of this lesson was 'Spot the online scams' and, as part of this live lesson, the children were using their inference skills to spot the different signs of a scam including pop-ups, spelling errors in a post and when something sounds too good to be true. . 


The lesson discussed the importance of not clicking on links and ensuring that children have a strong password containing random words, a capital letter. a number and a special character, such as the '@' symbol or an exclamation mark. 




The children loved the interactive elements of the lesson and were able to discuss the many ways in which they can keep themselves safe online by avoiding, and then reporting, pop-ups or links. 



Year 4 School of Noise Workshop

 

This week, Year 4 were lucky enough to welcome the School of Noise workshop into school.

This workshop links with our learning Science and Music learning this half term.

The children explored ways that sound travels and how vibrations are made. 


"Wow I didn't realise sound travels through vibrations" - Sultan

The children went around different stations and explored different instruments School of Noise had brought in for them to try.


Year 3 Certificates 14.02.25

 


Well done to our wonderful Year 3 pupils in their final week of school! 

We have had a very busy week with some seriously fun learning. In Literacy, pupils have worked hard to create their independent balanced arguments, debating whether Peter should read the book of immortality or not. 

In Maths, we been experimenting with 'how many ways' looking at different combinations of items such as snacks, clothing and even ice creams! 

Finally, in Science we completed our first solo experiment of the academic year! We tested different soils to find which absorbed the most water. Year 3 all worked very hard and showed high quality reciprocity skills to work well in teams. 

For the final time this half term, let's celebrate our certificate winners! 

E for excellence - Miya - Rose, Layla - Mae, Jace
Star Writer - Dija, Esmee, Jacob
Teacher Happy - Theo, Lochlan, Ronnie
4R's - Rehan, Lola, Kylie





Have a wonderful half term and we look forward to seeing you all very soon!
