Asalamu alaykum ladies, This week for me like many of you has been about getting back into our usual school routine and utilising the refreshed feeling Ramadan brought us, Alhamdulillah.

Asalamu alaykum ladies. It’s almost Ramadan and it’s wonderful to hear everyone getting ready for its arrival. I took some time out to really think about what I really wanted our focus to be this Ramadan, and in simple terms I want us to connect with the Qur’an on a deeper level. This beautiful month […]

Asalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies. We finished up our latest read aloud, ‘A Journey to Jo’Burg’ by Beverley Naidoo a few weeks ago, because the kiddos were captivated by the story.
