On Saturday 29 July the College held Open Day for new and existing families to view our facilities and get involved in various activities.
Open Day commenced at 10am and concluded at 2pm. There were many classrooms open and in full swing for our visitors to see.
Our primary students created robots made out of lego which hooked up to their PCs. There was a drumming monkey, snapping crocodile and singing birds just to name a few. On the floor we had robots following white space and black lines.
Walking into the primary media room was exactly like walking the red carpet. What an extraordinary experience! Parents were interviewed with a pop quiz, they witnessed a debate in action and were shown work that the students had previously produced, what a creative bunch.
Our secondary girls cooked up a storm with cupcakes, muffins, cakes, biscuits and the most delicious sausage rolls you have ever tasted.
The secondary science room had various experiments on display with candles burning at both ends, microscopic vegetables, burning paper flying through the air and how light travels. What an educational experience for all to enjoy.
There were creative art displays in the secondary artroom. The work produced by our students is astonishing, Al-Taqwa is very proud of the talent within the school. Our textiles department had tie died t-shirts, denim pencil cases and pin cushions. Look out for these items on Fete Day.
Both libraries were also on show with fantastic displays from our students. As soon as you walked into the multipurpose hall there was a myriad of stalls from various departments with staff on hand to answer any question. Our teachers did a great job in setting up the stalls for a fantastic day. Well done to everyone involved in Open Day. We look forward to preparations for next year.
