Please note that (weather permitting) we hope to be holding our annual school sports day tomorrow (Sunday 22nd May) during normal school hours.  Please ensure youre child(ren) come dressed appropriately to take part in sporting events.  All parents are also encouraged to stay to support their children as they participate in each event.  Note: In the event of bad weather, we will revert to a normal school day so please ensure your children bring their school bags/books just in case.

School Trip

This year’s school trip has also been planned for Saturday 4th June to Wicksteed Park in Kettering.  Please click here for details.  Payment for coach seats and rides must be made tomorrow in school as we are closed next week due to the Bank Holiday weekend.

MKIS School of Islamic Studies is currently closed until Sunday 3rd January 2016 insha Allah where we will have normal classes and Parent Consultations for selected parents.  All students will receive their report card showing attendance, Term 1 exam results and any teacher comments.

If your child(ren) missed their tests at the end of last term, please ensure they are at school on 4th January to allow them to be taken then.

Dhuhr Prayer Time Change

Please note we will be holding our normal congregational Dhuhr prayer at midday for the next few months.  This means Arabic Studies will run through until 1:30 p.m.  Please come to school to collect your children at this time and no earlier.

Late Arrival to School

As announced during assembly last week, despite many warnings late attendance continues to be a problem.  As a result any students arriving late for the 3rd occasion since the start of Term 1 will be asked to return home.  Late attendance causes disruption to the morning assembly and first lesson so please help us by ensuring you bring your child(ren) to school by no later than 9:50 a.m.

School starts Sunday 13th September at Southwood School in Conniburrow insha Allah.

Just a reminder to existing families and to inform new families starting that assembly is held at 10.00 a.m. prompt. A late attendance register is taken for students arriving past this time as doors are closed just before assembly and repeat late arrivals will result in a discussion held with parents.

Information handbooks and school diaries will be issued during school this Sunday.  School bags will be distributed to new families over the next few days. New children aged 5 – 7 have been automatically assigned to classes as follows:

5 Years old go to Class 1

6 Years old go to Class 2

7 Years old go to Class 3.

All returning students are to line up as per their classes last year.  New students will be informed of their classes once returning students have left the hall in order to keep disruption to a minimum.

The reception desk will have details of which class your child is in if you are unsure.

Please ensure your child(ren) come to school with pens/pencils/exercise books and snacks/money for use in out tuck shop.

We would like to ask parents to please bear with us as the start of term is always a busy period.

SIS Enrolment Day will be held on Sunday 6th September at Southwood School in Conniburrow insha Allah.  As per our previous posts, places will now be offered on a first come first served basis so if you didn’t register online during August you must attend on 6th September to enrol.

New families with children aged 8+ will need to undergo some brief tests in order to determine which class they will be allocated so please bring them with you this Sunday.  Children aged 5 – 7 will be automatically assigned to a class (space permitting).

YOU DO NOT NEED TO ATTEND IF YOU HAVE ALREADY ENROLLED AND PAID ONLINE – Please come to school on Sunday 13th September for the start of Term 1 to learn which classes your children have been allocated.
