The benefits of studying Lower Primary Science
Learning Science from an early age harnesses children’s natural curiosity and enables them to understand the world around them.

It has been a pleasure working with all of you and I wish you success and prosperity in the next and all the academic years ahead. It looks like the future of learning is heading in the direction of online learning and you are a brilliant school that will continue to thrive and lead in this domain.

Canvas is really easy to navigate even without prior experience or guide. I really liked that there are many links to resources for parents to be better prepared when taking on homeschooling.. e.g. phonics pronunciation and explanations of terms used. Noorah finds everything very easy and fun to do, she’s always excited for her lessons and is very relaxed so far. Afterall, its a very thorough and well planned course, we enjoy teaching as much as she does learning!
