Welcome to Grade R at Thornhill Primary!

At Thornhill Primary, we believe that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single, playful step! Welcome to Grade R, where our little learners, aged 5 turning 6, embark on an exciting adventure filled with fun, creativity, and foundational learning.

A Year of Wonder and Discovery

Grade R, also known as the Reception Year, is a pivotal year in your child’s educational journey. This year serves as a bridge, preparing our young explorers for the exciting world of primary school and formal education. Through a blend of structured and unstructured play, our Grade R curriculum is designed to nurture a lifelong love of learning.

A Playful Approach to Learning

We believe that children learn best when they are actively involved in their learning process. At Thornhill Primary, our Grade R classrooms are buzzing with creativity and joy. From imaginative play to hands-on activities, we create a nurturing environment where children can explore, experiment, and express themselves.

Preparing for a Bright Future

As our little learners prepare to step into Grade 1, they carry with them the skills and confidence gained in Grade R. Regular attendance, following instructions, and a love for learning are just a few of the habits they develop here. Our goal is to equip each child with the 21st-century skills and key competencies needed to thrive in modern society and its ever-evolving economy.

Join us at Thornhill Primary and watch your child grow, learn, and flourish in an environment that celebrates the magic of early childhood education. Let’s make this year a fun-filled, unforgettable adventure!
