A news update for those who are traveling or are stuck for ideas for Christmas presents.

In early February Grades 7,8 & 9 will be undertaking a 5 day camel safari from up near the border at Buraimi heading downhill through the wadis and back to school. Although part of the journey will be on the camels there will also be a lot of walking and trekking to villages and sites along the way. Suitable hiking boots will be of great importance to our intrepid young explorers and if you can purchase good quality boots during the break then I would recommend doing so.

Year 6 will be completing a sailing course during their outdoor education week and I highly recommend a good quality ” rash vest” or swimming top to reduce the chance of sunburn.

I wish you all a merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Stay safe and have a great holiday.
