Attendance champions Cedar hit Kispace
The children in Cedar class have been talking about it all term. The day finally came - they were going to Kidspace!
After a very excitable journey and safety talk from the staff at Kidspace they were let loose around the area.
From go-karting to rock-climbing, exploring to firing soft balls at one another - Cedar did not stop for the whole 3 hours!
Some children braved the climbing wall.
"I'm going right to the top", Summer-Rose.
"I want to do it again!" Evie.
At one point there was even a battle between the children and teachers...it's fair to say the children definitely won!
It didn't stop there, next up was go-karting.
Finally the trip had to come to an end, just a quick snack stop before we headed back to school.
In Cedar we take pride in our excellent attendance. The children are very committed to the number 1 rule at Broadford. We hope to be returning to Kidspace next term!

Outdoor gym
Pine class spent some of their afternoon using the outdoor gym equipment. They worked in pairs or small groups to support and coach each other. They discussed the importance of balance and working together cooperatively to get the most out of the gym equipment. They noticed how different equipment worked different areas of their body.
"This one you have to move all your arms and legs, which is hard" Rashid
"This makes me move the fastest!" Alice
The coaches help their partners and discuss which body parts they are using the most/ least.
"We ended up both on it to make it work the best and we had to work together to get it to move" Dora
"If I keep pulling with my arms I can make my legs go higher!" Ruben
"It was hard at first but I told Keira to lean forward" Phoebe
"This one is my favourite and I've been on them all!" Oliver

Year 2 experiences: collages.
last week, Year 2 had a fantastic Art day. Miss Gilder created Christopher Columbus collages with them using different materials. She was very impressed with how hard they worked and how they could articulate what they were doing.
" Wow! Columbus is 3D " said Maliat .
" I enjoyed making the sea using different shades of blue" Tommy said.
