🧦🎉 What a special day in the Primary School!

Learners and staff had great fun celebrating Silly Socks Day, with our Head of Primary School and Phase Head joining in the colourful excitement. We also enjoyed a lovely Parent Appreciation Morning, thanking our parents for their continued support and partnership.

To top it all off, our learners shared birthday wishes and songs for our Head of Primary School's upcoming birthday!

🧦💙 Silly Socks Day for a Great Cause! 💙🧦

Our learners stepped out in their silliest, brightest, and most colourful socks today as we celebrated Silly Socks Day! The fun didn't stop there – learners also generously donated shoes in support of our outreach project this term.

We are incredibly proud of our school community for showing kindness, compassion, and a willingness to help those in need. Every donated pair of shoes will make a difference in someone's life.

Thank you to all our learners and families for supporting this wonderful initiative and for helping us put our values into action.

Oh, what a lot of colors and fun today for Silly Socks Day! 🧦✨
Our learners brought so much energy and creativity to the school with their brightest, wildest, and silliest socks. It has been a day filled with laughter, smiles, and wonderful memories as we learn through play.
Thank you to all our parents for helping our learners step out in style today!

Good morning Curro Thatchfield Primary

11 June 2010. The roar of the vuvuzelas. South Africa hosting the world. And then that unforgettable moment when Siphiwe Tshabalala scored the first goal of the FIFA World Cup™ ... a goal that united a nation and inspired a continent.

Today, as Bafana Bafana take to the field, we're reminded of what is possible when South Africans come together and believe.

'Goal Bafana Bafana
Goal for South Africa'
Upcoming matches:
• 11 June: South Africa vs Mexico
• 18 June: South Africa vs Czechia
• 24 June: South Africa vs Korea Republic

We wish our team all the best for this evening and the games ahead. We back you all the way ... play with pride, passion and heart.

Let’s go, Bafana Bafana! 💚💛

🏐🌟 What a wonderful afternoon of Mini Netball! 🌟🏐

Today, we had the pleasure of hosting Trinity House for our last friendly Mini Netball Festival of the season. Our young netball stars showed great enthusiasm, teamwork, and sportsmanship on the court.

For many of our U/7 learners, as well as some of our U/8 and U/9 players, this was their very first opportunity to play in a festival setting. They embraced the experience with confidence, excitement, and plenty of smiles, making it a memorable day for everyone involved.

We are incredibly proud of all our players for their effort and positive attitude. Thank you to Trinity House for joining us and helping make the day so special! 💙🏐

A special moment in a classroom today!

The learners were overjoyed to welcome our Phase Head during her classroom visit. The excitement, smiles, and warm hugs were a true reflection of the positive relationships and caring environment we strive to create every day.

Thank you for your support, encouragement, and dedication to our learners. Moments like these remind us that a happy school is built on strong connections and a shared love for learning. ❤️📚

Our Grade 3 learners had an exciting time on the Resolute learner platform this week as they took on the challenge of Novi Dash! 🤖💻

Using block-based coding, learners programmed the bot to navigate obstacles and reach its destination. Through this engaging activity, they developed their computational thinking, problem-solving, and logical reasoning skills while having plenty of fun along the way.

It's wonderful to see our young coders growing in confidence as they learn the fundamentals of programming through interactive and hands-on challenges! 🌟
