A Huge Thank You! Today, three amazing parents – Ash, Daz, and Sam – gave up their time to help us kick off our exciting garden project, and we couldn't be more grateful! Over the next few weeks, you'll start to see the space come to life with raised beds, plants, and lots of lovely touches. This will be a fantastic area where children can relax, explore, and learn how to grow their own fruit, veg, and flowers! A massive thank you as well to our incredible PTFA for organising and sourcing the materials – we couldn't do it without you! We're so lucky to have such a brilliant school community. Watch this space as our garden grows! #SchoolGardenProject #ThankYouHelpers #PTFARocks #GrowingTogether #OutdoorLearning #TeamThursfield #CommunitySupport #WatchUsGrow

Egg-citing News! Get ready for some cracking fun – our PTFA Easter Egg Hunt is hopping into school on Thursday 10th April! Each class will be joining in the fun during the school day, searching high and low for hidden letters. Once they've found them all, they'll team up to unscramble the letters into a special Easter-themed word. Solve the puzzle... win a prize! Cost: £2 per child How to pay: Pop the money in a sealed envelope with your child's name on it and drop it at the school office. The PTFA will be sending a letter home tonight – so check those school bags! Keep your eyes open... you never know where a sneaky letter might be hiding! Thanks for your support – and let the egg-hunting begin! #EasterEggHunt #PTFAFun #CrackTheCode #EggcellentAdventure #SpringtimeSurprise #HappyHunting #SchoolDaysFun #HoppyEaster Thursfield PTFA Fundraising group

Can You Help Us Dig Deep for Playtime Fun? We're excited to be creating a digging area in our school field as part of our OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning) lunchtime sessions! To make this a success, we're on the lookout for children's digging equipment things like spades, trowels, rakes, buckets, and any other fun digging tools. Since the area will be open to all children during lunch, we'll need lots of tools to go around! If you have any spare children's gardening or digging equipment at home, or would be happy to donate a set to the school, we'd be incredibly grateful. Every little bit helps us give the children more opportunities for imaginative and active outdoor play. Please drop off donations at the school office or message us for more info. Thank you so much for your support! #OPALplay #DiggingZone #OutdoorLearning #PlayMatters
