BHS Fireside Lecture Series

Fireside Lecture Series

Let’s talk about children and their smartphones.

• The impact of smartphones on mental health and well-being.
• Strategies for achieving a healthy balance with technology at home.
• How parents and schools can work together to create healthy online habits.

Year 4 are travelling to Hampton Court Palace for an adventure in history as they are studying the Tudors.  The trip is taking place on Thursday 6th February and it is an all-day trip. They will travel by coach and will leave and return during the school day.  Chef Nay will prepare a packed lunch, but they will need their water bottles in a hands-free bag (the sports bag works well). Children must be in full school uniform and grey winter coats, however they can wear their Broomfield beanies as it will be cold. Time permitting, the children will visit the gift shop and can bring a maximum of £10 spending money.  

Year 3 are looking forward to their trip to The Natural History Museum on Friday 7th February.  They will leave school at 9am. The children will be provided with a packed lunch and should wear their full uniform and bring their swimming bag to carry their packed lunch and their own personal water bottles. 

YEAR 1 TRIP TO RED BEARD FOREST SCHOOL 

Year 1 are excited for their upcoming trip to the amazing Red Beard Forest School at Syon Park on Friday 7th February. The children will depart school at 9am and will return at approximately 12pm. The children should wear their Broomfield sports kit and they can wear trainers, wellies or boots depending on the weather. Please ensure they wrap up warm with plenty of layers as they will be outside for the entire session. Chef Nay will prepare snacks and the class will be back at school in time for a warm lunch. They will be exploring winter in the great outdoors, woodland crafts and building a campfire.

We would love volunteers who can help execute our 2025 Summer Fair plan – please reach out to Dale Filipek (PTA Chair) or Sara Khan/Kate Dossa (PTA core team).
