Our Arabic-speaking students breathed a huge sigh of relief at the end of this week as they completed their Ministry of Education exams. I get the impression our non-Arabic speaking students feel a little grateful during this time too, if only because they don’t have to take them!

However, the end-of-year assessments are not over just yet; there are still some summatives to go. Fortunately, on Tuesday, we all get to take a pause for a few days as Oman celebrates Eid Al Adha. I also hear a rumour that Sohar will have a very special guest in residence during the celebrations, which has brought an even more festive feel to the holiday!

Wishing all of you who celebrate a happy and blessed Eid Al Adha.

Best wishes,

The Grade 7 Team
