Dear Parents, Teachers and Staff,
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
I hope this message finds you in good health and Imaan. As we begin the school year in 2025, I would like to extend my gratitude to all of you for your continued support, trust, and commitment to Taqwa School.
It is a privilege to serve as the new Chairman of the School Board, and I take this responsibility with sincerity and purpose. I would like to acknowledge the hard work of the previous leadership, and I look forward to building on that foundation with renewed focus on strengthening key areas of the school.
In 2025, our priorities are clear:
- Strengthening behaviour management and student discipline
- Raising expectations for respect, manners, and responsibility
- Delivering consistent, high-quality teaching and learning
- Supporting our teachers and staff through clear leadership and direction
With the help of Allah SWT, 2024 was a landmark year. The successful launch of Years 7 and 8, the completion of new classrooms, the addition of new teachers, and strong enrolment growth all reflect the trust the community places in our school. Alhamdulillah, we now turn our attention to launching Years 9 and 10 by the end of 2025, and infrastructure planning for this is already underway.
Our Islamic identity remains central to everything we do. The Islamic Studies Department continues to provide Quran, Arabic, and Islamic values education with both depth and sincerity. Our teachers are supported by a strong leadership team, and our internal assessments and NAPLAN results reflect steady academic improvement.
Taqwa School is not just growing in size — it is maturing in direction and purpose. As a Board, we are working closely with the Principal and senior leadership to ensure every student benefits from a safe, respectful, and high-standard learning environment.
I thank each of you — parents, teachers, staff, and volunteers — for your role in making Taqwa School what it is. Let us continue working together to provide the best for our children, in both their faith and education.
May Allah SWT guide and bless all of us in the year ahead.
Wasalamu Alaikum,
Abdul Salam Durrani
Chairman
Taqwa School Board – 2025
