طلبہ کی سرگرمیاں
The shape of an ordinary day — assembly, lessons, break, recitation — along with our timings, uniform and code of conduct.
The School Day
It begins in the courtyard.
Every morning starts with assembly on the ground: lines by class, recitation from the Quran, the national anthem, and announcements. It takes a few minutes and it does a lot of work — attendance is visible, the day has a beginning, and a child who is struggling is usually noticed here first.
Lessons run in periods with subject teachers from the Middle section upward. Break is on the ground, where cricket is the standing arrangement and has been for as long as anyone can remember. Afternoons end with the day's homework written into exercise books before dismissal, so that no child goes home unsure what was set.
Attendance is taken seriously. Absence beyond a couple of days without word brings a message home, because our enrolment is reported to the Punjab Education Foundation monthly and, more to the point, because children who drift out of attendance are the ones who drift out of school altogether.

A child is never sent home over uniform. If a family is having difficulty obtaining it, speak to the office — attendance matters more.
Beyond Lessons
What else happens here
Nazra Quran and Islamiat
Recitation at assembly and Nazra on the timetable through the Primary and Middle sections. Islamiat continues as a compulsory board subject to Matriculation.
Naat and Qirat competitions
Held within the school and, where students are entered, at inter-school level. These are often the first time a shy child stands in front of an audience.
Speech and debate
Urdu and English speech competitions, usually tied to national days. Good for the students who write well but will not speak.
Cricket and sports
Cricket on the ground at break and after school, plus drill and races. Girls' participation is arranged separately where appropriate.
National days
Assemblies and programmes for 23 March, 14 August, Iqbal Day and Quaid Day — tableaux, speeches, and the national anthem sung properly.
Annual prize distribution
Results, attendance and conduct recognised in front of families at the end of the session. Parents are invited and expected.
Conduct
What we expect, and what we do not do
The rules here are ordinary: arrive on time, wear the uniform, bring your books, complete your work, speak respectfully to staff and to each other, look after the building. Bullying and fighting are dealt with directly and the families of both children are involved.
Corporal punishment is prohibited in schools in Punjab and is not used here. Where behaviour is a problem the response is a conversation with the student, then a conversation with the parents. Repeated or serious matters are handled by the Principal.
What we ask of parents
- Send your child every day, and tell us when they cannot come
- Check exercise books and sign them
- Come to the school when you are called — it is never for nothing
- Come to the school when you have a question, without waiting to be called
Come and watch a morning assembly.
Parents are welcome at the school during working hours, without an appointment.
