Year 4 Help the Environment!


 At Broadford Primary School, we believe in teaching our pupils the importance of caring for their environment and community. That’s why our classes took part in a series of litter-picking sessions, both around the school grounds and in the local area.

Litter picking helps protect wildlife, keeps our community spaces clean and safe, and encourages everyone to take pride in where they live and learn. More importantly, it teaches our children responsibility, teamwork, and the value of small actions making a big difference.

We’re proud of our pupils for stepping up and showing such care for the world around them. Together, we’re helping to build a cleaner, greener future.

"I can't believe we did 6 bags of rubbish!" Kayden, Willow Class


“I am proud of the way in which we look after our school.”Chloe, Maple 



“I love litter picking, it’s helping the environment” Sultan, Elm

Year 3 Certificates

 



It's been another fantastic week in Year 3 and the children have been working hard and making excellent progress in their learning!

In Literacy, the children have continued to explore their current topic, script writing. 
They began the week by identifying the key features of a script in groups using a highlighter, before changing a piece of the text from 'George's Marvellous Medicine' into a script independently. 
Finally, the children performed their scripts to the class remembering to use the correct volume, tone, facial expressions and body movements. Well done Year 3!

In Maths, Year 3 continued exploring the topic of time by calculating the duration between one given time and another. The children then timed themselves completing various activities, such as writing the alphabet on their whiteboards three times, before converting the given minutes and seconds into seconds. We are sure that the children had a wonderful time completing this activity!

Great work Year 3!

This week's certificate winners are..

E for Excellence - Victor, Alesha and Vikhyat
Star Writer - Summer, Alice and Rosa
Happy Teacher - Abdulhafiiz, Poppy and Elsie
4 R's  - Jessica, Anaelle and Layla-Mae

Readers Theatre Fun in Year 3.

 


Readers' Theatre is a reading activity which involves reading a script aloud in a small group. This week in Year 3, the children have taken a script from their class novel - You are a Bad Man Mr Gum! The pupils worked in small groups to take turns to speak. They have applied their reciprocity skills to work alongside others and their resourcefulness skills to act imaginatively.

During this session, the children were concentrating on maintaining eye contact with their audience and displaying confidence when reading aloud.

The Year 3 staff have been blown away by the children's speaking skills, a huge well done to all of the children.




"We work as a team to rehearse the script. doing it with my friends makes it more fun!" - Hayden,  Cherry. 

"When reading you have to change your tone to make it interesting for the listeners." -  Ayra , Ash.


"I love readers theatre because we get to use our story voices." - Ronnie, Cedar.

Games Afternoon in Year 4




Dear Parents/Carers,

At Broadford, we are committed to enriching our pupils’ learning by offering a carefully planned programme of experiences that broaden their horizons and help bring the curriculum to life. We recognise that many children may not always have access to such opportunities outside of school, so we aim to provide them here.

As part of this, we are excited to invite the children to take part in a Games Afternoon on Wednesday 16th July 2025

Each child is welcome to bring in a game of their choice to enjoy and share with their classmates. Examples might include games like Scrabble, Dobble, Connect Four or Dominoes.

Please ensure that the game is brought in on the day in a named bag. Children should be happy to share their game with others and will be responsible for looking after all the pieces or parts it includes. We will be reminding everyone to treat each other’s games with care, and staff will be supporting this message throughout the afternoon.

We’re looking forward to a fun and friendly session of play and teamwork!

Best wishes,
The Year 4 Team
