CURRICULUM


Dear Parents/Guardians

Welcome back after the long and hot summer vacation. We hope you had a relaxing holiday and were able to spend some quality time as a family. We also hope that Ramadan was a time of spiritual peace and good will and that Eid al Fitr was celebrated with joy.

    We have a “no hat – no play” policy in our school to protect our children from the harsh sun and weather in the UAE. Please ensure that all clothing has been clearly labeled with your child’s name so that if lost it can be returned immediately. The school does not take responsibility for unmarked lost clothing.

  6. Please do not hesitate to make an appointment with senior or class teachers if you have any concern about your child's education. Appointments can be made via Mrs Mara Frias-Advincular at 04 264 1595 Ext 104.
  7. Please diarize the 2 October 2010. All parents are expected to attend our "Orientation Day". This will be an opportunity for you to fully understand what learning experiences your child will be encountering this year, and also give you a chance to ask questions. You can use this opportunity to meet Dr Nicklas Dahlström who is the Parent Representative on the Deira Private School Board of Governors. A parent's involvement in their child/children's school life is vital if the child is to grow up healthy, happy and successful. Remember our school motto:

Ad Vitam Paramus
We are preparing for life!

Once again, a sincere and warm welcome to you all and may this academic year be one of partnership and community.
Yours sincerely
Sharyn Grieve
Principal
