About the school
What matters to us in a pupil's day
The jummaiza is a sycamore fig, a tree with wide shade, and it gave us our name. We want a calm school where children learn at their own pace, and where parents know who teaches their child and how to reach them.
Reading every day
A fixed reading time in every class, and a classroom library in Arabic and English that changes every month.
Learning by doing
Simple science experiments, planting in the school garden and art projects every term.
Clear contact with parents
A weekly home-school notebook, a teacher meeting every term, and one number for admissions and the office.
School stages
Three stages, each with its own day and approach
We divide school years into three stages. Each card shows what pupils learn at that stage and an example of an ordinary school day.
-
KG1 and KG2
Kindergarten
Learning through play: letters and numbers in Arabic and English, stories, drawing and movement in the playground. The same teacher stays with the class all year.

Do you accept pupils in the middle of the year?
That depends on the places available in each class. Ask the admissions office, which explains the admission conditions on the call.
