@KHDA This feels irresponsible. It’s hard to believe this is the outcome from KHDA when schools in Abu Dhabi and Sharjah are moving online to keep students and staff safe. Who is being protected here? Numbers are increasing and with a new strain... please recognize the risk to all.
Last year, some younger children used to cry when their parents dropped them off at the classroom. Now, their parents aren’t allowed to drop them off in class, and none of them are crying!
No time like the present and a particularly relevant time to start reading about nature deficit disorder given the current ‘lockdown’ situation so many children globally find themselves in 🌎
From time to time, I find myself uncomfortable with play which I cannot see developing in the way I had anticipated it to. My urge is to ‘teach’ in these moments. This article serves as a needed reminder to resist temptation to commandeer beautiful and authentic play.
KG2B with a wonderful surprise for @MsEleanor_Chase this morning. This distance is HARD, but this is an absolutely beautiful reminder of how strong our community is. Thank you @GIS_Gems for making this all worth it! We miss you! #WeRGIS#InThisTogetherDubai@GEMS_ME
Today is a really special day. Firstly, the children presented me with beautiful signs of appreciation during our morning meeting... then a gorgeous basket of goodies arrived. My heart is so full and I am so grateful! Thank you to the thoughtful children and parents 💛 #WeRGIS
Uncertain times for us all, but one thing I can be certain of is the tremendous amount of work my kid’s teachers @MsEleanor_Chase & @MissNicoleMcW have done in preparing for tomorrow’s launch of #remotelearning - we’ve logged into @MyGIS1 - we’re ready & raring to go #WeRGIS
@emirates I booked my ticket in February. Today when I called I was told I could only change my ticket with the waived fee if I flew before May 31st, and to refund the ticket was going to be 1000aed... this policy doesn’t offer me support at all, in fact, it’s absolutely redundant.
