Sunday School

By the grace of Allah last year we had a good number of students enrolled and we thank the teachers and parents who worked for the school. In shaa Allah we are planning to be more organized this year. Islamic education being our first priority, we will also concentrate on developing other skills by making the students participate in different events. We would prefer to have all the kids enrolled early as it will help us in identifying the correct class and prevent us from disturbing the class by adding new student every week. So please register your kids early.

  • To enable students to fulfill their obligation to worship Allah in the manner that the Quran and Allah’s messenger have prescribed.

The School’s Curriculum

The curriculum is carefully designed for children, to fulfill these requirements:

  • To be able to read, write and understand commonly used Arabic terms and phrases, including Quranic reading.
  • To have a full understanding of basic Islamic beliefs.
  • To be able to understand and perform the rituals that is practiced in Islam.

    • (b) Stories of other Prophets.

How do we plan to achieve these objectives?

  • Teachers meet regularly to plan lessons.
  • Teachers plan lessons that are stimulating and interesting, using a variety of methods and activities.
  • Lessons are planned to meet the needs of the children, according to their age/ability.

Parents’ Role in the School:

Here are some ways in which you can help your children to reinforce what they have learned in the school:

  • Discuss with your children what they have learned in school. If they have learned any Surahs/Duas, help them to memorize them. Praise them for their effort. If they are not doing well or not taking interest in their work, come and talk to the teacher and find out how you can help. If you need to see a class teacher, please arrange a time before or after school.
  • Make sure they do their homework regularly. If a child continuously does not complete homework, parents will be informed. If there is no response after the warning, the child will be removed from school.
  • Bring and collect them from school on time. 
  • Make sure that you are good role models for your children at home and at school. 
  • Read the school policies and make sure you are following the rules.

Education starts at home, exerting a strong influence on the upbringing of a child. The children are our future, so it is up to parents/teachers to educate them in such a way that they will grow up with the help of Allah (S.W.T) to be confident, practicing Muslims.

IT IS A VENTURE WHICH SHOULD CONCERN THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY.
