In our great relationship with our neighbours St. Monica’s ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ, Al ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ had a friendly match of hockey against their students.
The participants who represented our ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ were selected from Years 7 to 10 on the basis of their hard work and commitment in class, following our ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ values and showing good sportsmanship.
The Year 7/8 boys team played against St. Monica’s Hockey Academy and were defeated 2:0. Along with the Year 9/10’s, Team Al ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ put up a great challenge to the St Monica’s Hockey Academy team, resulting in a mere 3:1 loss. Both teams showed great sportsmanship and team spirit. The boys really enjoyed this experience as most of them had never played field hockey before.
On behalf of Al ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ, I would like to commend the selected Senior boys on their great effort and like to add that I am very proud of them. Furthermore, we wish our Year 7 to 10 Girls Team all the best for their match against St. Monica’s on next week’s Wednesday, 25th May, inShaAllah.

The goals, which he strives towards, are to pass on his knowledge to future generations so they can use and apply what they have learnt in school and the future.
When Daniel was at High School, his Physical Education teacher was very highly respected by all students, parents and teachers, and was a great role model, which influenced him to become a Physical Education teacher himself. Creating a safe and positive environment for students to enjoy school and encourage them to always try their best at anything they do is a goal that he will try to accomplish to the best of his ability.
