International Literacy Day
Exciting News! Today, on International Literacy Day, we kicked off the "GIS READS" Reading Program for the year 2023-2024! 
Our students had a fantastic kick start to this initiative with a range of engaging activities:
In-class activities that allowed them to reflect on their favorite stories, write captivating book reviews, and even create their own comics! 
Every student received special bookmarks to accompany them on their reading journey
To make this day even more special, we had some awesome guests from the Reading Room who read fantastic stories to our students. Ms.Sofa Shafeeg had the grades 1 to 3 children tickled pink by the hilarious things in Angelica Sprocket's never-ending pockets and Ms.Asima Abdulgadir had them in stiches by the Interrupting Chicken!!Ms. Yooliya Haleem captivated the imagination of grades 4 and 5 students and showed them that the fun in stories can be in the words too and we don't need pictures all the time!
The grades 6 to 10 were enthralled by our very own Principal, Ali Mustafa, who kept them on toes with his storytelling magic, showing that what we think we see might not always be true! 
But that's not all! Our dedicated teachers and SMT members showcased their story reading talents through entertaining skits, adding an extra layer of excitement to this memorable day. 
"GIS READS" is about immersing the children in the world of books and that's what we did the whole day!!!
