We started our Ancient Civilisation unit with an amazing and engaging trip to Al-Zubara Fort; one of a few forts that are still standing to tell about the history of Qatar.

We were lucky to have our tour guide prepare fun team-building games to keep us motivated and active in the lovely weather. We also had a chance to explore the fort and its different rooms, as well as  on our Maths measuring skills, as a provocation for the new Maths unit.

This trip was the best way to end the first term with adventure and knowledge!

The Grade 4s had an amazing time preparing for Qatar National Day celebrations. Students learned interesting facts about Qatar’s past and present and created posters during Qatar History class this term.

We had a great time learning more about Qatar’s history, its major cities and Emirs who ruled it over the years. We worked with our reading buddies -Grade 2s- and had an amazing afternoon followed by some lovely shows and performances.

We hope that you enjoyed celebrating this special day with us as much as we did.
