Ta'aruf Program With New Parents

We feel it is important to share with our new parents our school curriculum and how we can work together as a team or partners in their children's education.  Alhamdulillah, we had a good turn out and the parents spent some time getting to know the teachers of their children.  Thank you and Jazakumullahu Khair to parents who came and for the contributing the refreshments. 

There were not enough chairs, so some parents had to sit on the stairs.
Registration of the parents' attendance. 


The school curriculum follows the Kurikulum Standard Prasekolah Kebangsaan, by the Ministry of Education.  The curriculum emphasis on the 4 M  ~ 
• Reading (Membaca)
•Writing (Menulis)
•Counting (Mengira)
•Reasoning (Menaakul)
The parents visited the classes and got to know the class teachers.  They spent time looking at the books, reading modules and talked about how they can help their children to read. 





The children who came along were 'entertained' by the teachers outside.

2016 School Year

Welcome to 2016 school year!

We are very happy and excited to meet many new faces and to get to know their parents.  As usual, the first days are challenging and can be chaotic ~ we have a handful of crying children but after 4 days, some have stopped crying, some cried a little and some are as 'tearful' as ever, especially the younger ones.  The older children (5-6 years old) are settling in very well and enjoying the activities planned for them.

Preparing For 2016

Its been quite some time since I have posted anything.  It's holiday time and wanted to spend a lot of time with my family.

School has never stopped, even though its holiday!  We are busy preparing the class, the school and attending courses ~ 'sigh' NO HOLIDAY in actual fact!   This year we are expanding the school and taking in more children.   We are also going to open a branch which is located nearby, about 1 km away from the present school.




That's why we are extra busy ........

We are all EXCITED and looking forward to meet all the children next year.  

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Anak : Anugerah Terindah

The teachers attended this 'Parenting Course '  conducted by Jamilah Samian and her husband, Ahmad Fakhri Hamzah in Miri.  This course was organised by Kelab Belia Integrasi.  Please refer to their facebook for more information regarding their work.

 Jamilah Samian has written a number of books on parenting : 
Latest book
The course touched on parenting skills and marriage.  There were also activities for the children. 

From Jamilah's post on Parenting :   Are we entirely responsible for our children? Is it our fault if they don’t turn out well?
Our children are a test for us. When they’re grown, they have to want to do good. It’s their choice. We’re responsible for how they’ve turned out, but up to a point. As they grow up, they make their own decisions more and more.
As parents, we consistently make prayers (e.g. Al-Qur’an: Surah Al-Furqaan: 25:74), seeking Allah’s guidance for ourselves and for them. Guidance is something we must seek all the time, because this is a matter of the heart.
We all have our moments as parents. But never ever give up. Remember Prophet Nuh a.s., who still prayed for his son, despite knowing he’s about to drown.
God will reward us based on our intentions and efforts. So long as we’re sincere, and seek repentance, have faith that God Most Generous will help us. In terms of efforts, we will never get it 100% right. Wake up for the night prayer, help others, no matter where they come from. For me when I help people, I make a little prayer that God will send ‘helpers’ to my path and my family and children’s path. Miracles do happen. Nothing is impossible if God wills it so. ~ Jamilah Samian
