Spelling Bee and Quiz Bee Competitions, Funky Hat Maths days, and simple science experiments amongst others, offer these valuable learning experiences. Our themed days, such as Pink Day, Blue Day, and Odd Socks Day help our students to understand the values of being respectful and kind to others, as well as the importance of a healthy, active lifestyle. Integrated into our curriculum are Qatari national values and traditions, and the Qatar National Day and Eid celebrations further acquaint our children with Qatar\u2019s heritage and national identity.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:200,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">We value a strong relationship with our parents; parent involvement is always welcome as this has a very positive impact not only on students\u2019 learning experiences but also their academic achievement. <\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">There are Parent-Teacher-Meetings towards the end of each term, where parents have the opportunity to discuss their child\u2019s academic progress with the teacher.
