Dear Programme-16 May

“Read not to contradict and confute; nor to believe and take for granted; nor to find talk and discourse; but to weigh and consider.”

“Reading makes a full man,” said English philosopher Sir Francis Bacon and no truer words were said than these. Reading nourishes the intellect and nurtures the imagination. There is nothing more relaxing and soothing than sitting in the corner of a room with a book in your hands. Without travelling, without even moving an inch, the reader is transported to a new world and is exposed to a new culture and new ideas.

Reading is a gift that not all inherit and therefore the Government of UAE’s initiative, to declare 2016 as the Year of Reading is a great idea. This initiative should open the hitherto closed door for many and make them aware of the extensive powers that reading has. Parents and teachers will have a major role to play and they will have to come up with enterprising ways to encourage and entice children towards reading.

Credence High School has stepped forward in pursuit of excellence with the DEAR programme. Every child in the class were immersed in reading our school library books. Children also learnt to share their storybooks with their friends. Drop Everything And Read is going to be an agenda of the school which will be followed twice every month.

International Family Day

Family plays an important role in transmission of the cultural traditions from one generation to another. It acts as an educative unit and a socio-cultural support. The importance of this aspect lies in the fact that children all over the world get their earliest instruction in the family beginning with language. A regular and close involvement between home and school is essential for the success of children during their school days.

An International Family Day event was organized in Credence High School by the grade 1 team on 15th May to celebrate the importance of families, people, societies and cultures around the world. Family members came together to spend quality time with their loved ones by participating in fun activities together.

Children enjoyed having lot of fun time with their parents learning and guiding them in the various activities held on the day. “It was fun, we laughed a lot, and I saw that together with my family we are capable of doing many things.” said a parent while another said, “I spent a lovely day with my little boy, I wish this day was celebrated more often.”

08May

Mothers’ Day

“Of all the special joys in life, the big ones and the small, a mother’s love and tenderness, Is the greatest of them all.”

Moms are magnificent! To help celebrate all the things these wonderful women do, we at Credence invited all the mothers of Kindergarten to their child’s class on the occasion of Mothers’ Day. For us, Mothers’ day is always the most precious and memorable event.

Children sang a special song for their mum, which was followed by craft activity and games for both mother & child together. They had so much fun together and it was a pleasure watching them.

It was a day well spent and a memory to be treasured by mothers and the little Credenians.

A good education depends entirely on the person providing it. Many schools introduce new and innovative methods of study to be on par with international standards of education but do not have the requisite qualified staff.

Benefits of choosing Indian schools :

Parents who have transferable jobs find it difficult to find schools for their kids mid session, with CBSE transferring child/ren mid-session becomes easier as all CBSE schools have a uniform syllabus and exam structure everywhere, so it does not matter if your ward is joining any time of the year, he or she can easily cope with the syllabus.

Developing Holistic Individuals

Indian schools (CBSE curriculum) follows a cumulative approach to its syllabus, which means there is a continuity and link to previous topics of study. The advantage of this approach is that it makes remembering simple.
