Dear Parents/Caregivers

Assalaamu AlaikumWRWB

 

                                                                         Unite against COVID-19

 

Jazaakallahu khairan to those parents/caregivers who had responded to the COVID-19 survey form sent to you last week. Alhamdulillah 274 parents had responded to the survey out of which 255 (93.1%) identified themselves as non-essential workers while 19 (6.9%) identified themselves as essential workers. Indication has been given that about 10-15 students will be attending the school.

As the intention of Government at Alert Level 3 is to keep the students at home and they be taught via distance learning. Therefore, we request parents to keep their children at home if they can and use the school’s online facilities for their learning.

Those parents who had registered their interest in receiving a device from Ministry should have received the device by now. In case you have not received the device from Ministry, please contact the school by sending an email to the respective class teacher/s and perhaps copying it to Principal. Please treat this as urgent as the school may be able to make an alternative arrangement.

It is important to know that there will be no face-to-face teaching for those students who attend the school from tomorrow. All students who stay home and those who come to school will ONLY BE TAUGHT ONLINE by their teachers. This also includes all the Quran lessons as per their current timetable. THERE WILL BE NO BEFORE or AFTER SCHOOL QURAN HIFZ PROGRAMS.

Furthermore, please note:

  1. School Hours: 8.30am – 3.00pm.

  2. If your child(ren) are sick please DO NOT send them to school and seek medical attention.

  3. All students are to be dropped and picked from the roadside only and entry/exit is through the main gate only.

  4. For health and safety reasons, parents/caregivers and visitors are not allowed in the school premises. Gates will be closed at all times. For urgent matters – please make an appointment first by ringing 09-2755195 ext 0 or you may ring the Principal on 021675994.

Wassalaam
