Dear Parents/Guardians,
Assalamu Alaykum WRWB,
Welcome students and parents to Term 4. This is
perhaps the busiest and the shortest Term of the
academic school year. There are many academic,
sporting and co-curricular events scheduled
culminating with the examinations, reports and
presentations across the three campuses (see below).
Yearly examinations have commenced for Year 10
students and Years 7-9 will begin their examinations on
Monday, 11th November.
World Teachers’ Day
The aim of World Teacher’s Day is to emphasise the
significant role of teachers world wide. Our teachers
play a crucial part in our society as they guide, nurture
and teach our children …. our present, our future. This
momentous occasion was celebrated across all
campuses with morning teas. So a huge thank you to
all the wonderful, dedicated and hardworking teachers
af Malek Fahd Islamic School. Thank you to our
Wellbeing, SRC and Admin team for the organisation of
the scrumptious morning teas.
