Some of our age 8-9 home-schooled children have been learning all about the topic India under the Moghuls.

They have been studying THE MOGHUL DYNASTY, AKBAR OF INDIA.

Akbar’s empire covered half of India and to understand the Indian culture, the children have participated in a cooking and tasting activity which involved making a well-known traditional food called Indian Dal.

Dal is the Indian word for lentils. It is cooked almost daily in every Indian home.

As a result, there are many different ways to prepare dal.

The children got to do a practical cooking which helps in the development of important skills in food handling and preparation as well as learning about food dishes from periods in history.

We are pleased to announce that we have introduced Sports Skills sessions at Tuition Club.

This will benefit the children in many ways, teaching them skills, fitness and will also impact positively on their general well-being.

Positive participation in Sports will enable children to build, self-esteem, respect, physical development, teamwork and positive attitudes.

Some of our home-schooled children will be focusing on Netball this half-term.

They have practiced shooting and learning the rules of chest pass, bounce pass and overhead pass.

In the next few weeks they will move on to learn the other rules and focus on netball drills.

Our home-schooled children have been doing a mini dig after discussing and learning all about what History is and the work of Historians.

Archaeologists dig things like dishes and toys out of the ground.

They find out about the past from these things.

The children had fun participating in a simulation of an archaeological dig.

They used material such as small items from household, a plate/shoebox full of sand, small brushes, old tooth brush, tweezers and a small bag to place items in.

Our home-schooled children have had an excellent start to the new academic year.

During Arabic lessons they have been working on letter writing which focused on their summer holidays.

Letter writing is an essential skill which is also taught during Arabic lessons. It is also fun and helps to compose written text and provide handwriting practice.

Children must be aware of different styles of writing, the use of formal and informal letters, and to select style and vocabulary appropriate to the intended reader.

Our home-schooled students have produced some excellent work which can be viewed here

Tuition Club resumes on Monday 2nd September 2019.

We look forward to welcoming back our students and staff InshaAllah.

Alhamdulillaah yesterday afternoon we came to the end of another year at the Tuition Club and to celebrate the achievements of our home-schooled students, we held an end of year ceremony and a parents afternoon.

During the ceremony our students were rewarded for achieving a 100% mark in all subjects on the Tuition Club behaviour and effort charts and were presented with certificates and gifts.

Some of our Arabic students also gave a presentation and this included some lovely speeches from some of our home-schooled children.

After the ceremony we held a parent’s afternoon, which gave parents the opportunity to speak to the tutors regarding their child’s progress.

Tuition Club Ceremony & Parents Afternoon will be held on Thursday 25th July 2019 @12pm

We look forward to seeing the parents for a lovely afternoon InshaAllaah.
