Asalaamu Alaikum dear parents,

As we manage the impact around COVID-19 and the mandated ministry closure of schools to help stop the spread of the virus, we wanted to create a hub with relevant and frequently updated resources and information to help parents and families navigate online education and keep up to date on what the school is doing through this Crisis.

  • We will continue to improve on this plan with the help of our parents’ community, staff and students
  • Keep yourself informed on changes by reading our email updates and also checking this page regularly
