Thornhill Primary School

Thornhill showcasing some of our technology, coding and robotics today at the Smart Education & Technology Conference & Exhibition 🤖

Our Thornhill cricketers won convincingly against Baobab today and these young players received their first team caps. Well done to all our cricketers and thank you to Baobab Primary School for the game.

We were fortunate enough to have Ross Branch join us on Wednesday morning last week, where he addressed the children across the school. The children were in awe of our Dakar hero and he shared some valuable life lessons with them about setting and achieving their dreams and goals. Thank you to both Ross and Amy for making time to come in and share your valuable sentiments with our children.
We wish Ross Branch all the best of luck, as he heads off to Abu Dhabi soon to continue racing on the circuit.

Botswana Day

Our children celebrated Botswana Day through a variety of traditional activities and games based on our theme: “Our Culture, Our Pride Through Games”.

It has been particularly special to see our pupils dressed for the occasion in traditional attire.

This morning we have the pleasure of hosting Mandy Herold, “The Connection Coach” who will be engaging with our Std 5, 6 & 7 pupils and staff to spread her profound knowledge in Social Emotional Learning.

Mandy is an International Conscious Discipline Certified Instructor, as well as a Gallup Global Strengths Coach and an Accredited Performance Coach.

Rocking our socks! With us not for us!
