Super Fruit Solar Systems in Year 5

Super Fruit Solar Systems in Year 5



This week in Year 5 we had an exciting Science lesson. Since we are learning about the Solar System, we got to recreate our own in groups using fruit. 

We had to use 2 of our 4 R's when completing the task. We demonstrated Reciprocity by sharing the fruit and our creative ideas to create work that was out of this world. We also demonstrated Reflectiveness by making small changes to ensure as a team we were collectively happy with the fruity masterpieces.

Perfect Periscopes in Year 6


Year 6 have been developing their scientific enquiry skills even further this week and last by investigating how light from an object is reflected by a surface. They learned that the light changes direction and travels in a straight line. 

The children turned into engineers for the day by thinking carefully about the materials they wanted to use in order to see objects that were behind them or on a different level. They all ended up designing and making their very own periscopes!


It was great to see the children determined to succeed and using their resourcefulness learning power to get round any issues they were faced with. Excellent work, Year 6!

Meet our Year 6 House Captains 2022-23!


 Please meet our wonderful Year 6 House Captains for the Academic Year 2022-23.

We are so proud of these children who prepared speeches to become House Captains and were videoed for the rest of the school to vote online.

In Green House Aisling and Ryan were voted in as House Captains. 

Aisling's speech was extremely moving as she spoke about her journey at Broadford. She is an upstanding pupil and we are so pleased she is representing Green House!

This is Ryan's year! He wasn't the most confident in talking about himself initially but wrote a fantastic speech that won the school over!



In Red House, Hannah and Noah were voted in as House Captains.

Hannah is an exemplary student and is always maintaining her pupil jobs everyday she is at Broadford. This job was definitely made for her.

Noah only joined us a year and a half ago, which he mentioned in his speech, but during that time has shown us how much of a role model he is!


In Yellow House, Richie and Jessica were voted in as House Captains.

Richie finishes his last year at Broadford as House Captain and this appointment really shows off how much he is appreciated at Broadford. He is an extremely resilient boy and we are proud to have him as part of the team!

Jessica is an enthusiastic and helpful girl who shows great maturity. We are so pleased she was voted as House Captain!


In Blue House, Livi and Madalina were voted in as House Captains.

When the votes were announced both were very surprised as they are also best friends! 
We are very excited for them to take on their role as House Captains together, in this, their last year at Broadford.


Renaeyah and Riley were voted in as Red Vice House Captains.

Renaeyah has only been at Broadford a short while, but after some encouragement from Miss Betty - who knew she would be a great addition to the team - Renaeyah prepared a last minute speech and look where it got her!

Riley is a hardworking pupil at Broadford and is always keen to help others. We are so pleased he is part of the Vice Captain team.


Layla and Iniya were voted in as Yellow Vice House Captains.

Layla is a very conscientious member of Broadford and always does her three pupil jobs. 

Iniya was made for this role! She loves helping and is so polite and warm. 

Laura and Happiness were voted in as Blue Vice House Captains.

Laura is a extremely hard working pupil who we are very grateful to have at Broadford.

Happiness wrote a great speech and will be a key part of the team.

Kezia and Fiki were voted in as Green Vice House Captains.

Kezia wrote a wonderful speech and it clearly won over the school!

Fiki will be an excellent Vice House Captain as she is always wanting to help and always completes her 3 pupil jobs.




Meet our Year 6 Prefects 2022-23!


Meet our wonderful Year 6 prefects!

Following an application and interview with Mrs Nicholls these children stood out from the rest!

These children will be helping Broadford with the smooth running of parent visits and any special visitors we welcome to the school.

School Council City Hall Trip

 School Council City Hall Trip

Today the 2021/2022 School Council went on a trip to the new City Hall in London to celebrate the wonderful work they have done this year representing their classes!

 We were the third group of school children to ever enter the new building in Custom House and learnt about all of the fascinating work people there are doing there to try and make London a better place for us all! We reflected on important historical events, both good and bad, that have impacted the city and discussed potential changes that could happen in the future. 

After our talk and tour of City Hall, we were lucky enough to be able to ride the cable cars! Some children showed their resilience as they braved their fears of heights.
