Beaconhouse School System, Clifton Campus Newsletter January 2015 The First Word Dear Parents/Guardians, Assalam-o-alaikum! First term has come to a successful end and we look forward to the next term being even more exciting for our students and parents. At Clifton Campus, our students are actively involved in challenging and enriching experiences with the academic rigor and creative opportunities. They are encouraged to explore the possibilities that are available to them. Our students have begun taking responsibility of their learning, they are now critically thinking, finding reasons and discovering answers. They are seen as reflective practitioners whether it’s a classroom, on stage, on the sports ground or while serving others. We want our students to experience the excitement of new learning for which we would like you to be a part. Looking forward for your cooperation and support. Let’s give our children the confidence in their abilities. Sincerely, ____________ Rabia Shahdab (Sr. Headmistress) BSS 40 years Celebrations
