As the academic year draws to a close, schools across the UAE are gearing up for a two-month summer break. The final week is packed with exciting events, including visits from UAE astronauts, talent shows, and appreciation ceremonies for staff and students.

Key Takeaways

Astronaut Visits and Space Lab Openings

Simon Herbert, Head of School/CEO at GEMS International School, Al Khail, announced that two UAE astronauts from the Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre will visit the school to inaugurate a new Space Lab. This special event is part of the school’s focus on celebration and community in the final week.

Honoring Teaching and Support Staff

Schools are hosting various events to honor the achievements of both students and staff. Tracy Crowder-Cloe, Principal of Cranleigh Abu Dhabi, mentioned that the school will hold prize-giving ceremonies, end-of-year house events, and a staff appreciation dinner. The school also organized a support staff appreciation lunch to thank non-teaching and support workers.

Musical Shows and Talent Competitions

Students will participate in a range of activities, including musical showcases, talent shows, and concerts. These events feature singing, orchestras, wind bands, student rock bands, piano recitals, and art exhibitions. Final sporting events, competitions, and tournaments will also take place, ensuring the year ends on a high note.

Indian Schools’ Celebrations

Many Indian schools have already begun their summer break, having completed their first term last week. Sangita Chima, Principal of Amity School Dubai, highlighted that the school completed exams and assessment reviews before the break. The final week included a KG Market Day, a 10-Day Maths Challenge, talent auditions, and fun class parties.

Community Activities and Continuous Learning
