We warmly welcome our new and returning pupils and parents back to Hiba Academy after the long summer holidays and we hope that everyone had a relaxing and enjoyable break. As we begin this new academic year, we are filled with anticipation and enthusiasm for the many exciting learning opportunities that lie ahead across the entire curriculum.
At Hiba Academy, we value working in partnership with our pupils and their families. Our shared goal is to celebrate our pupils' numerous successes, both big and small. This year, we are particularly excited about the variety of innovative and engaging programmes we have planned. From hands-on science experiments to creative arts projects and enriching physical education activities, there is something designed to spark curiosity and excitement in every pupil.
We are especially pleased with the success of our new pupil orientation event. This initiative has played a vital role in facilitating a smooth transition for our new pupils and their families. It has given them the opportunity to immerse themselves in the unique culture of Hiba Academy, and to see firsthand the nurturing and supportive community that we are proud to maintain. The friendships and bonds that have already begun to form are a testament to our collective spirit, and the smiling faces of our pupils are evidence of their happiness and sense of belonging.
This week, we hosted our 'Meet the Teacher' events, which have been well received and attended. These sessions were designed to introduce parents with their child's teachers, provide a comprehensive overview of what a typical school day entails, and offer a platform for parents to ask questions and connect with other families within their child's class. The positive feedback from parents highlights the importance of these events in strengthening the home-school connection and fostering a sense of community.
As educators and staff, we are extremely impressed with how the pupils have already exemplified the Hiba values of kindness, responsibility, and respect. Their behaviour and positive attitude are impressive and set a strong foundation for the year ahead. We are confident that, with such an impressive start, this academic year will be nothing short of excellent.
We look forward to continuing to collaborate with parents throughout the year to ensure that every pupil at Hiba Academy can flourish and reach their full potential. Together, we can create an environment where learning is celebrated, and every child feels valued and supported.
