Dear Parents and Carers,
Part 1 Broadford News Well done to all of the pupils in year 2 who completed their end of year 2 assessments this week. They have all worked very hard this week and should be very proud of themselves. I know that the teachers are immensely proud of the pupils and their amazing resilient attitude throughout the week. Pupils in KS2 have all taken part in assessments this week and have shown incredible resilience. These assessments are to inform teaching for the last part of this academic year and transition into the next academic year. If you would like any further information regarding these assessments please do not hesitate to contact your child’s class teacher.
Opal Gold Accreditation
Over the last two years Mrs Stanley and the Opal play team have been working towards embedding Opal into our school day. Opal ensures that playtimes look like a rich laboratory of creative expression, where every child is supported by our knowledgeable staff to endlessly create and challenge themselves.
I am thrilled to inform you that this week we achieved Opal accreditation at Gold level, which is a fantastic accomplishment. We are the first school in the area to obtain this award and we hope to gain the platinum award within two years.
Thank you to all of the parents who support the Opal system with resources and to all of those parents who completed the survey. We very much appreciate your ongoing support.
We know that our pupils are very much enjoying the extra resources and opportunities that they have during these times and this was very clearly demonstrated to Cath our Opa co-ordinator.
Summer Fete Save the date - we are hosting our summer fete on Saturday 8th July. We hope to see as many of you there as possible.
Rainbow Tombola Day
On Friday 9th June we are holding a non school uniform day at Broadford in support of the ‘Rainbow Tombola’ and for prizes at the summer fete. Pupils can come to school wearing their own clothes, but they must wear school shoes or trainers. Instead of the normal procedure of bringing in some money, on this occasion we are asking pupils to bring in an item to donate to the fete in exchange for wearing non school uniform.
As it is a ‘Rainbow Tombola’ and for prizes we need new items which are of course in the colours of the rainbow. We have given each year group a specific colour to make sure that we have a spectrum of colours for our tombola. Please see the list below to see what colour your child’s year group is.
Year 1 - Green
Year 2 - Pink
Year 3 - Purple
Year 4 - Red
Year 5 - Yellow
Year 6 - Blue
All you and your child need to do is select a new item in the specific colour for their year group and bring it into school on the non school uniform day on Friday 9th June. Then come along to the summer fete and play the ‘Rainbow Tombola’ to win a prize every time or play some of the games on offer to collect tickets to exchange for a prize. We can’t wait to see you all there.
