This has been an excellent term, so far, for DBS Wakra secondary students. We have celebrated Qatar National Sports day with a week of inter-house sports activities and observed several other weekly themes including; Online safety week, World Book Day and International Women's Day. Our sports teams have put in their all to the tournaments that they have been involved in and we are so proud of our under 14 girls basketball and football teams for winning medals. It has been wonderful to have trips for all students in the secondary, that has allowed learning to take place beyond the classroom. We hope everyone has a restful week and we will see you on Sunday 19th March for next half term.

The Llama class children were all focused on the ‘o’ sound today. They learnt that the beginning sound of ostrich, octopus, and orange is ‘o’, and got really excited when they got to explore their creative sides with a simple ‘o’ for orange craft.
Each child is unique in their own way, and so is their art!🍊

At DBS Wakra, we know that reading for pleasure unlocks academic potential in all subjects, and not just in English. Our reading for pleasure lists, for example, which were put together by subject-specialist teachers at the beginning of the academic year, are chosen carefully in order to complement the outstanding curriculum delivery which takes place in lessons each day.
Today, on World Book Day, we have had yet another opportunity to celebrate our collective love of reading, with students from all phases and all year groups not only having fun but also demonstrating their commitment to becoming lifelong readers.
