Dear ABIS Families,
Although we are coming to the end of this school year, the Community
Council has organized one final event: The ABIS Community Iftaar.
As Ramadan is a chance for families to gather together, it seems fit- ting that our ABIS family take the opportunity to come together for a celebration before the end of this school year. Additionally, this gives us a chance to celebrate the wonderful culture of our host country, Oman, and experience a unique tradition as an ABIS community.
The Community Iftar will take place in Mazoon on Wednesday, the 22nd of May.
Doors will be open from 6:20pm, with a pre-Iftaar lecture about Ramadan and traditions during Ramadan at 6:40 and the meal starting after the Athaan call. The evening will end around 8pm.
Those attending are asked to bring a dish to share. As we don’t want everybody bringing the same dish, we have organized food categories for different people based on surnames:
• FamilieswithsurnamesfromA-Hshouldbringfruits/vegetables.
• FamilieswithsurnamesfromI-Qshouldbringsomethingsavory.
• FamilieswithsurnamesfromR-Zshouldbringsomethingsweet.
Any questions can be directed to Ms. Eiman (e.alrisi@abisoman.com) or Karen (k.mathews@abisoman.com)
We hope to see you all there! Sincerely,
The ABIS Community Council
