REFLECTING UPON THE PROPHET’S MESSAGE (PBUH)

To remember and reflect upon the teachings of the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH), the Primary Section organised the Islamic week. This also marked
the Prophet’s birthday. Between 3rd to 7th November, students interacted with each other to highlight the teachings of Islam. The students of Year
6, under the guidance of their teacher, discussed the Prophet’s migration with the students of Year 3. The highlight of the week was a congratulatory
tweet from KHDA received by Muhammad Sufiyan of Year 2 on his project titled ‘A Day in the Life of the Prophet’. The week concluded with a
grand exhibition in the quadrangle, displaying projects and exhibits made by the students.
