Year 4 had a great day at Fishbourne Roman Palace. They explored the mosaics and bingo. They took part in a workshop and did lots of activities like creating their own mosaics, wrote in Latin and spun their own wool.
Year 5 enjoyed a fantastic day at Gaveston Hall where they took part in orienteering, shelter building and a river walk. They learnt about the geographical vocabulary associated with rivers first hand. Nobody managed to keep their feet dry (adults or children) as we walked through the river. The children also worked well in a team to build some impressive shelters as well as knowing how to use a map to complete an orienteering course.
Year 1 have been exploring the 5 main senses. We used our senses of taste and smell to try some sour, bitter and sweet items. We discussed whether the flavours were things that we enjoyed exploring, and about what we would prefer instead.
We had a fantastic time at Forest School this week, embracing the great outdoors with plenty of smiles. The children enjoyed gathering around the campfire together. Everyone loved toasting marshmallows and making s’mores. They also had a warm hot chocolate. What a great morning!
As an introduction to learning French, the classrooms were turned into a French café. All the children enjoyed eating some traditional French breakfast items. Whilst at the cafe, everyone was entertained by some French music and learnt about French culture. The children also began to use some French words.
What a fantastic and inspiring day for our Key Stage 2 children! British Invictus Games competitor Luke Delahunty led the children in an energetic workout before sharing his powerful story of determination, resilience and reaching for the stars. Our children rose brilliantly to the challenge and have also been busy collecting sponsorship, raising valuable funds to support the school in purchasing new PE equipment. A huge well done to everyone who took part and thank you to all our families and friends who generously sponsored the children!
Year 4 had the exciting opportunity to watch the Worthing Symphony Orchestra perform a range of known pieces using a variety of instruments. The children got to see violins, woodwind instruments and base drums in action whilst they clapped along to some known melodies!
Our Year 3 children led a wonderful Harvest Assembly, reminding us of the importance of being thankful and caring for others. We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of our school community. Thank you to everyone who contributed donations for Turning Tides, helping us to make a positive difference to those in need.
At the start of spring 2025, Noah started to learn to sail at Worthing Sailing Club. He has continued this into 2026 and achieved his Royal Yachting Association Level 1 and Level 2 certificates in the summer. This has then led to him wanting to take part in the West Sussex Schools & Youth Association Sailing Regatta which took place on the sea at Felpham at the weekend. Noah was part of a well represented rookie fleet from Worthing. Noah achieved a joint seventh place overall with a best race finish of fifth. He also helped Worthing win the overall rookie fleet competition. Well done Noah
As part of our learning of symmetry this week, Year 4 have worked hard to replicate Roman Mosaics! They created their own symmetrical patterns and carefully crafted their own colourful mosaic grids. Great work Y4!
Ettie is the first to receive the community award this year. Ettie decided she would really like to do a bake sale, making and selling flapjacks to raise money for the RNLI. Ettie made flyers, practised making flapjacks and set up her stool outside the front of the house. Ettie held the bake sale on Friday 28 Aug and thanks to neighbours and friends raised over £31 for RNLI. People even complimented her on how nice her flapjacks were!
Well done Ettie
We are so excited that Forest School has started at Broadwater. It is a fun way to learn outdoors and explore nature. We will develop new skills such as teamwork, problem-solving, and building confidence. Forest School helps us learn in a hands-on way while enjoying the natural environment.
