Dear Parents,
Assalamu Alaikum
Last Wednesday, the students at Abraar Elementary School participated in the Terry Fox National School Run. I must say that it was a success, MashaAllah! Everyone from grade one to grade six participated either through walking or running. It was heartwarming to see the students participate in such large numbers. In addition, I want to share something incredibly sweet with all of you. The JKs and SKs were not able to run, so they decided to do something to help out. The teachers started "A Toonie for Terry" where each child brings two dollars to help in Terry's cause. I was overjoyed to see the amount of toonies raised.
Pledges are starting to come in, MashaAllah! Please note that all pledges need to be returned to school by October 7, 2014, inshaAllah.
I would like to give a big heartfelt thank you to everyone for their participation and generous donations. Jazakum Allahu Kharain.

All About Me Puzzle: Students made an all about me puzzle by drawing and writing different things about themselves in each part. They pasted the puzzle on construction paper and cut it out.
Reading: Students sat on the carpet and we talked about how to be a true friend. I started reading them a book about friendship "How to be a Good Friend" and we discussed some of the things that make us true friends.
Islamic Studies: We learned about Allah (SWT) and how He is our Creator. Students did a lovely craft where they made a frame with Allah (SWT) using paper plates, glue and coloured egg shells. Mash'Allah they did a wonderful job!
Park: We went to the park with our Math Buddies and had lots of fun!
Reminder: In shaa Allah your child will have the class schedule by Friday.
I hope you all have a great evening!
