Our Community Involvement
Our Community Involvement
We strongly believe that the success of every educational setting is based on partnership with the community at large. Community involvement is vital for every educational setting. Partnerships with the community improve schools, strengthen families, and build community support, and increase student achievement and success.
A love for people is at the heart of Edu Fun Nursery. We believe that people who live and work in our community have the right to influence it and to have a stake in its future. We want residents and businesses to be central in that journey, actively working together to inform and achieve our strategic priorities, as well as to help us create better and more efficient services.
This means that we:
- Listen and seek to understand the needs of our local community
- Respect and integrate local customs and values into our nursery setting
- Seek out opportunities to support, engage, and interact with our local community
UAE Culture & National Identity
Since we believe that cultural identity is important, we ensure that our children understand and are involved in the community they’re in, which is that of the UAE.
In order to do this, we plan engaging learning opportunities for our children that encourage awareness of the UAE’s culture and identity. We also incorporate Arabic (for all the children) and Islamic (for Muslim children) classes on a daily basis. In this way, our children enjoy the advantage of a diverse, creative and robust learning programme in Arabic language and Islamic studies.
Below are a few of the activities that we practice in order to understand and engage in our local UAE community:
- Incorporation of the UAE’s culture and history in our curriculum
- UAE Flag Day and National Day Celebrations
- Daily singing of the UAE’s National Anthem in our morning assembly
