Our youngest learners demonstrated their risk-taking attributes and shared their learning with some confidence. We recognize that preparing for these assemblies requires significant time and effort, and we continue to balance this with valuable teaching time. Thank you to the parents who were able to join us for this occasion. Our next assemblies will take place after Ramadan, and we will share the dates in advance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>International Food Evening<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At the time of writing, I am looking forward to this evening\u2019s event!
