Autumn Adventures with the Little Explorers! What a busy and exciting week we've had in Reception learning all about autumn! We kicked things off in literacy by reading the brilliant story "The Leaf Thief", which had us giggling and guessing what might happen next. We even searched for initial sounds in the pictures – our Little Explorers are becoming super sound-spotters! During our Fine Motor Mornings, we practised our threading skills and had a go at cutting – it was a bit tricky, but we didn't give up! On our Welly Walk, we set off on an autumn hunt and spotted so many wonderful signs of the season – crunchy leaves, conkers, and even a few squirrels! We've also been working hard on reading CVC words and showing off our blending skills. Plus, we got super creative with some lovely autumn-themed crafts – full of colour, glue, and imagination! We're so proud of all the learning and exploring our Little Explorers have done this week. #LittleExplorers #AutumnFun #EarlyYearsMagic #LearningThroughPlay #CVCReading #WellyWalks #FineMotorSkills #LeafThief #ThursfieldPrimary #ReceptionAdventures

Year 6 Job Role Assembly A huge congratulations to our amazing Year 6 pupils who were proudly presented with their school job roles in assembly yesterday! From Prefects and Digital Leaders to Play Leaders, Head Boys & Girls, and their Deputies, each role is a chance for our pupils to lead by example and contribute to our school community in meaningful ways. This marks an exciting chapter in their final year at Thursfield – a time to take on new responsibilities, support others, and truly shine. We're so proud of how confidently they stepped into their new roles, and we can't wait to see them flourish as positive role models throughout the year. Well done, Year 6 – your journey as leaders has begun, and we know you'll be fantastic! #Year6Leaders #ProudMoments #HeadBoyAndGirl #Prefects #DigitalLeaders #PlayLeaders #RoleModels #LeadershipInAction #ThursfieldFamily #FlourishAndShine
