A series of orientation programmes were organised in in the first half of April 2025 across various classes to foster strong collaboration between parents and the school.
The Lower Nursery orientation was conducted on April 8 under the guidance of Pre-Primary Incharge Ms Sabica Zehra, and was led by the class teachers. It familiarised parents and children with the school environment, daily routine including scheduled activities, break timings, nap periods, curriculum, health and safety protocols, and the importance of parental involvement. The session concluded with a positive Q&A interaction.
On the same day, the class I orientation was held in the presence of Principal Mr Deepak Mervyn Mathews and Primary Section Coordinator Ms Tazeen Rizvi. After a Quranic recitation by Arham Ali (V-C), Ms Rizvi delivered a warm welcome. Class teachers were introduced, and Ms Sakeena Raza briefed parents on uniform, hygiene, eating habits, curriculum, and the need for reading and discipline. Mr Mathews encouraged English communication, addressed concerns like screen time and parent-child interaction, and emphasised building a strong parent-school bond. The session concluded with an interactive discussion.
Orientation sessions for classes VI and IX were held on April 11 and 17. They began with the Quranic recitation by Theology teacher Mr Arshad Husain, followed by Vice Principal Mr Sachindra Bharti introducing the Management team—Secretary Mr Najmul Hasan Rizvi, Jt Secretary Dr M Talha, Principal Mr Deepak Mervyn Mathews, Counsellor Ms Nisar Fatima Rizvi, Coordinators Ms Masroor Fatima Abdi and Ms Farheen Asrar, and class teachers through a PowerPoint presentation.
Mr Bharti stressed the importance of attendance, homework, discipline, uniform, and the mobile phone ban, urging parents to support home timetables and monitor peer groups. He encouraged regular communication through class groups and diaries. Ms Abdi and Ms Asrar reinforced diary checks, PTM dress codes, spoken English, and availability of books and stationery. Ms Rizvi addressed the emotional and physical development of students, urging hygiene, religious values, and parental support. Mr Mathews likened child development to shaping a pitcher—requiring combined efforts of parents and teachers—and encouraged quality time and open communication. The sessions ended with fruitful parent interactions.
These orientations across classes set a positive tone for the academic year, strengthening the home-school partnership and guiding parents on their vital role in students’ holistic development.
