What is the Assembly session?
It’s when we appreciate the hard work of our kids; we
sing, play, present the good work and give rewards to
our lovely kids.
How do the kids get rewarded?
1. Class Teachers’ Rewards:
Each class has a reward chart; it’s divided into two sections, academic
and behavioral. The students should collect 10 points throughout the
week to get rewarded at the end of the week.
How do the kids get rewarded?
2. Arabic Teacher Rewards:
The Arabic room has the same reward charts and the Arabic teacher
will pick a student from each stage to be rewarded at the end of the
week.
