Principal’s Message - November 2022

Body

Assalaam'alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh

My dear brothers and sisters,

By the grace of Allah Sudhanshu wa Ta'ala, we have now launched a new website for Taqwa school. We believe that the new website will help parents and the community to efficiently deal with day-to-day needs of enrolments, fee payment, and providing feedback. There are still some parts of this website under construction. I request you to be patient and provide us with your feedback. I must thank the Taqwa board and the Website development team for their contributions.

Alhamdulillah, we are approaching the end of teaching for 2022. Our Year 6 students will have their graduation celebration on 18th November. I am saddened by the thought that these students will be forced to leave our school as the Year 6 and 7 at Taqwa will start in 2024, not in 2023. The good news is that the construction of the building for year 7 & 8 is progressing well.

Since I joined Taqwa school, several developments have taken place. We have appointed a Deputy Principal to help the principal with teaching supervision, relief teaching, staff mentoring & professional development. This will, insha’Allah, enhance our teaching quality and NAPLAN outcomes. Alhamdulillah, we have adequate number of teachers to take care of teaching in 2023. At the start of Term 1, details of the teaching staff will be provided on this website. Now, we also have a new look administrative team, which promotes the Islamic character of our school. Our administrative team members are professionally trained to accomplish their tasks in an efficient manner. As for the enrolment of new students for 2023, most of our classes have optimum number of students. However, the demand for more places is continuing. Accordingly, we are placing new requests on a waiting list, for year 1-4 classes. Only a few spaces in KG, Years 5 and 6 are still available.

As you are aware, there is a general shortage of teachers across all schools which is expected to continue during 2023. Despite the waiting list, we are still encouraging parents to register their children as we might open new classes if the situation is warranted. On the hand, we are actively seeking additional teachers to take care of the emerging scenario.

Sponsorship of Needy Students

We are still looking for your generous contributions to support two overseas students and three local students whose parents are unable to pay their fees. Any contribution towards the payment of fees of these children is welcome. May Allah Subhanahu wa Taala reward you abundantly for your generous and sincere contributions. Please contact me or the front office if you wish to support these needy students.
