Qatar International School

Help Our Planet Earth or shall I say HOPE

The HOPE group is newly formed in the Primary. We meet for HOPE at break-time; to discuss what would make our school more nature friendly.

International Day took place on Tuesday 26^th January. On this occasion, our students were given the opportunity to think about cultural differences and looked at many traditional costumes.

Throughout last term, the Spanish Club spent their after-school sessions learning about Spanish food and preparing for a party. After sending out some beautiful invitations, several teachers and friends came to the party on 16th December.

The Year 2 Maths workshop was held on Sunday 31^st January.  A big thank-you to the Year 2 teachers who ran this workshop for parents and to Miss Gallagher for providing the useful tips which complemented the workshop.  I hope the workshop has enabled you to pick up some strategies on how you can help your child at home over the coming months.

May I thank parents for their generosity on “Crazy Hair Day”, which was held across Primary and Early Years on Thursday  28th January as a charity fund-raiser for disaster relief in Haiti.  The event enabled us to make our young children aware of the less fortunate whilst raising a magnificent cash sum.
