A partnership between home and school
Your child learns best when home and school pull the same way. Here’s how we can do that together.
- Drop your child off and collect them on time — our staff move directly into the next session.
- Read our emails and WhatsApp messages, and act on what we send.
- Send your child with pencils, a sharpener and an eraser.
- Pack a snack — we don’t provide food, though teachers do sometimes hand out a chocolate or two.
- Expect a 5–10 minute break between classes.
- If your child is given a book, check for it at every drop-off and pick-up.
- If a concern about behaviour comes up, we may ask to have a quick word with you.
Events
-
Term 4 Open Day
Visit classes, meet teachers and enrol for next year.
-

-

Talk to the school
Before you enrol
Not at all. Our Beginner level starts from the very beginning — the sounds each letter makes and how they build into words. Plenty of our children arrive with no Arabic at all, and that’s exactly who Beginner is for.
Placement goes by what your child can do, not their age. A nine-year-old who is new to reading Arabic would usually begin at Beginner, and we confirm the right fit once you’ve enrolled — no child is left in a class that moves too fast or too slow for them.
No. Classes follow the four NSW school terms, so we don’t run during the school holidays — the next term picks up when NSW schools go back.
We’re still confirming our current position on sibling discounts. Please ask us when you enrol and we’ll give you a clear answer.
If you need to skip a term, talk to us and we’ll let you know how coming back and re-enrolling works. We’re finalising the details of this.
We’re confirming our policy on parents sitting in on classes. Please check with us when you enrol.
Just let the class teacher know at drop-off, so they know to expect you and can have your child ready to go. It helps to mention it early, since staff move straight into the next session at the end of class.
