About Al Rabeeh School
Principal's Welcome
Dear Parents. It is with great pride and excitement that I write this letter of introduction to you as the newly appointed Principal of Al Rabeeh School. I am honoured to have the opportunity to lead a school with such a rich tradition of education! I have spent my first few days as Principal visiting every classroom, greeting families and children at the front door, participating in the Haq Al Laila celebrations and whole school morning gatherings as well as many more wonderful experiences. It was truly an amazing first few days!
I have been dedicated to the field of education for more than twenty-three years and have worked with a variety of students" across the world ranging in age from Early Years through to Year 13. I am excited and eager to bring my skills as an educational leader to Al Rabeeh School and work with you as a partner in education to ensure your child"s success.
I look forward to spending a lot of time with your children, getting to know their personalities, learning styles and interests. I will celebrate their successes, encourage them every day and let them know they are valued and have a special place in our school community. School should be a place where each student gains memories that will be cherished forever, friendships that last a lifetime and knowledge and experiences that will prepare them for their successful life ahead. It should also be a place, where students feel safe and are eager to learn more about life, people and about themselves.
Teachers are a school’s greatest asset; therefore, I believe it is my responsibility to put our teachers in the best possible position to succeed, as they will in turn put our children in the best possible position to excel. Along with the teachers and leadership team, I will work hard to continue the legacy of success established by Al Rabeeh School by building strong relationships with parents, students and community partners.
All of us at Al Rabeeh School are eager and excited to begin a new journey, which promises to continue to provide excellent academic experiences for our students that are rigorous, relevant, and help them build relationships while making real-world connections. As your Principal, it is important to me that everyone who steps through our doors, teachers, students and parents, are excited to be here! This attitude enables us to meet any challenge in a positive, solution driven, and child centred environment. My door is always open and I welcome your input. I cannot wait to share with you all the great things your children will do!
I look forward to working with you as a team to help each student at Al Rabeeh School meet their goals and have an unforgettable school experience.
