Broadford Celebrates Black History 2024 - 'Golden' Music Video

 


At Broadford Primary, we explored this year's theme for Black History Month, 'Reclaiming Narratives'.

The message of acknowledging the journeys of cultures and taking charge of how you want to remembered echoed throughout the school and we chose to make a music video to the song 'Golden' by Jill Scott.

From Nursery to Year 6, our Broadford children are bringing joy to our screens.

Enjoy!

Year 4 - Black History Month



 


This month, Year 4 had been actively engaging in the schools activities for Black History Month 2024. They had learned about a variety of people such as Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King. We also discussed the Bristol Bur Boycott (in the UK) as well as the Civil Rights Movement (in the USA).We had taken part in a whole school dance, Art and Literacy project. 

Year 4 got to create an art image, around Bessie Coleman and choose a written project in Literacy (either a poem, poster or speech) based on Martin Luther King’s ‘I have a dream’ speech - we all enjoyed this freedom and creativity.  

"I love the quote, I refused to take no for an answer."- Nashwan, Willow



" I found her life story fascinating." - Nyasa, Willow


Work from Olivia, Maya-Aisha and Melody based on MLK’s ‘I have a dream speech’.

Year 3 Certificates

 



It's been an excellent week in Year 3 and the children have been working hard across all of their subjects to make progress in their learning before the Half Term break.

In Literacy, the children used their knowledge of our story for this half term, 'A Tale of Two Robots', to write an alternative story as part of an independent piece of writing. It was lovely to see so many children using their imagination to bring these alternative stories to life whilst also ensuring that they challenge themselves to use expanded noun phrases, inverted commas and paragraphs effectively in their writing. 

In Maths, the children have been learning to add and subtract ones across a ten using the steps to success to aid their learning. They then applied this knowledge to adding and subtracting across a hundred to great effect. Super job Year 3!


This week's certificate winners are.. 

E for Excellence - Victor, Harry and Iustin

Star Writer - Loui, Bella and Zara

Happy Teacher - Kai, Tommy and Kylie

4 R's - Miya-Rose, Joshua and Ara

Children in Need - 15.11.2024





 21st October 2024

Dear Parents and Carers,

Broadford will be hosting a very special day to raise money for Children In Need this year on Friday 15th November.


This will include:


  • Non-uniform day with a theme.

  • Design a new Pudsey competition to take place within classes.

  • Fun Pudsey themed activities to take part in throughout the day in class.

 This year's theme encourages you to be SPOTacular!

The children can wear any spotty clothing they own or if you are struggling to find clothing to match the theme a simple idea would be to draw polka dots on a plain t-shirt. If you would like to add Pudsey accessories to your outfit feel free! We ask that you contribute £1 per family to this great cause if your child is in non-uniform and any further donations are welcome. 

I am sure that we will all have a fun day raising money for Children In Need. 


Kind Regards, 

Miss Hamilton and Mrs Green
