The World Children’s Day celebration at our campus began with a warm and confident announcement by Ahmad Nouman, setting a purposeful and inspiring tone for the event. The program was further blessed by the beautiful recitation of the Holy Quran by Muhammad Afif, followed by a meaningful translation by Mustafa, which helped everyone reflect on the values of respect, dignity, and responsibility.
This year’s theme, “My Day, My Rights,” highlighted the importance of recognizing every child’s voice, dignity, and potential, while linking the learning experience to the Sustainable Development Goals, especially SDG 4: Quality Education and SDG 16: Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions.
We were honored to welcome our visiting delegates from Beaconhouse F-7/1 Campus, Beaconhouse I-9 Campus, and UCS Park Road, who joined us in this collaborative learning journey.
Students actively engaged in identifying classroom challenges such as poor communication, lack of kindness, and peer conflicts. Using their Chromebooks, they researched topics, included articles and famous quotes, and prepared clear problem and thesis statements.
Students also applied the 4 Disciplines of Execution (4DX) by creating their Wildly Important Goals (WIGs), identifying lead measures, designing scoreboards, and conducting group accountability discussions. This meaningful work aligned beautifully with our initiative, “Voices of Kindness: Building Emotional Bank Accounts.”
The event concluded with student presentations and a student-led campus tour for the visiting guests. It was a powerful and inspiring day that celebrated children’s rights, leadership, and the strength of kindness.
