Top 5 performers of 7A& 7C in English- Term I

Appreciation letter awarded by the English teacher for the excellent academic performance in Term I by Ayush Peter of 8A & Safa Mubarak of 7C

Safa Mubarak-7C

Ayush Peter-8A

I appreciate  you- Ayush  Peter & Safa Mubarak  for having done  an amazing job.

I know how challenging it is to perform excellently in all the parts of a language paper.  I appreciate the enormous effort put in by you, my dear students.

I have been observing the performance of you  in FAs & SA1 and found it incredible that this quality of learning  is possible with an excellent student like you.

It takes huge effort to organise the events that take place in the class and relate it in your assessments. There is a need to continue to develop, but how wonderful  it is !!!  As a  teacher I feel proud of you.

 
I look forward to seeing what comes in the future and hope I’m around in and out of the school long enough to connect with.

Good luck and Congratulations

With Regards

Aysha Jaleela- English Teacher

Back to school

Back to school: They're three words that provoke different emotions and responses. For some, the phrase means no more sleeping in or lazy days at the pool. For others it means an opportunity to reconnect with old friends and meet new ones.

Others love the feeling of being challenged and learning new things, whether they admit it or not. Truth be told, school is a mixture of getting up earlier, working harder, socializing and increasing knowledge.

So I welcome back all my beloved students after summer vacation. Gud luck for the days to go ahead packed with fun, activites and knowedge to be gained.

Similie and Metaphor

Happy vacation my dear students

Have a fun filled vacation
Safe journey
Refresh relationships
Collect new memories
And.....
Do ur vacation assignments too:)
HAVE A NICE TYM
