12.01.2022 This term, year 7-9 students are learning the purification of the heart. In the Qur'an, it states: "The Day when neither wealth nor children will be of any benefit. Save those who come before Allah with a sound heart" (26:88-89). Today, being the 12th of Rabi' Al-Awwal, the day our Prophet (pbuh) was born. We had special guests to commemorate the birth of our beloved, the one with the most purest of all hearts: Muhammad (pbuh). Our guests, delivered a talk reminding us about ...the blessing of being part of the ummah of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), his miraculous birth, the importance of following his sunnah, and concluded with singing odes praising the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). The companion Hassan ibn Thabit said, "I have not honoured Muhammad with my words; Rather it is my words that have been honoured with Muhammad (pbuh)." May Allah place in our hearts real love for the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).

08.01.2022 #Maths - This term the Year 7 students studied Probability, Time, Algebraic techniques and are currently studying Equations. Class time was given to the students to work on their probability assessment task where they needed to conduct chance experiments within their group. Then they needed to complete the assessment at home individually. They thoroughly enjoyed this assessment and the learning outcomes were achieved in a fun and constructive manner. The Year 8-10 students wo...rked very hard this term to prepare for their assessment task where they needed to reinforce all the concepts taught and consolidate them in a cohesive way to achieve their full potential. The Year 11 students are working very hard towards their end of year exams and we wish them all the best. May Allah swt reward them for their patience, endurance and hard work towards fulfilling all their learning outcomes.
