Learners assisted with setting up, they baked cupcakes and served up a sumptuous breakfast.They were educated about Cancer and radiation therapy and career choices in radiography.Warm smiles and tight hugs displayed sincere appreciation from these amazing brave women. It was truly an inspiring and unforgettable experience.Learners were presented with certificates for volunteering. Learners also delivered a poem on Tawakkul and ended with a closing dua.

Toastmasters has been a transformative journey for us which started in March, providing us with a platform to enhance our communication and leadership skills. From the moment we stepped into the welcoming environment, we were met with a supportive community that encouraged growth and self-improvement. Through regular speeches, constructive evaluations and impromptu debates and speeches, we gained confidence in expressing ourselves articulately and connecting with audiences.

Toastmasters has truly been a remarkable experience, fostering personal growth, and unlocking our potential to excel in public speaking and leadership.  The culmination of our efforts was recognised at our Toastmasters graduation on the 1 June resulting in the top two students of each category to take part in the inter school contest later this year.

The AFC Physical Sciences department hosted its first-ever Quiz on Saturday, May 4th, 2024, welcoming participants from Grades 7 to 12. 

Fifteen learners chose to participate, while others contributed as ambassadors, assisting in organisation, marketing, and general tasks, earning community service points in the process. 

Teams were composed of learners across different grades and who engaged in various quiz rounds to showcase their knowledge. 

The competition was intense and nail-biting, but as usual we can have only one team as the winners. 

 The winning team-

Aaisha Haffejee Gr7D; Naseeha Omar (9D); Ahmed Joosab (10A); Deeyana Randeree (11C) and Faatima Asmal (11C)

emerged victorious by a narrow margin of two points. MashaAllah!

Congratulations to ALL contestants, ambassadors, and audience members for their participation.

The ongoing challenges facing our youth makes it vital that we help them strengthen and deepen their relationship with the Quraan. To achieve this goal, the GRADE 6's were introduced to Quraan Journaling .

The Grade 6 learners were each  given a personal copy of a journal to record their reflections on selected Surahs from Juz Amma.

Alhumdulillah, 16 learners entered the competition. 

MashaAllah, an outstanding effort by all of them.

Each of the participants received a gift voucher to the value of R100 and a voucher that allows them to participate   in the Quran Academy Sessions at Alfalaah College.

Alhamdulillah, the Primary School celebrated the love for reading stories and their amazing power to transport minds. 
 
Children were encouraged to be curious and creative in each Foundation Phase class. They dressed up in characters of their book or book series choice and observed a fun yet educational approach to reading. 
 
Books that were highlighted from Grade 1 to 3 were:

• Dr Seuss, The Cat in the Hat
• Peter Pan in Neverland
• The Little Miss Mr Men Series
• Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
• The Hungry Catterpillar
• George's Marvelous Medine
• Fairy Tales by Hans Christian Anderson
