KG & Elementary Highlights Summer/Fall IS004 MLS ADE Gives Back Every year in school, our students find ways to give back to the community. This year was no different. Adding on to annual initiatives, the kids came up with innovative and creative ideas on how to collect money to donate to charity. From bake sales, to interactive games, from trampoline shows, to jewelry bazaars; the kids poured their hearts out in all the activities they designed and executed for their colleagues throughout the year. This generous and kind spirit of MLS giving back is only but one of the school pillars that we gave top priority to this trimester. Inside class during Character Building sessions and out, the kids learned and practiced Random Acts of Kindness. In the staffroom as well our teachers practiced the same, in a fun interactive game that encouraged a positive behavior and spread kindness all around. When our Egyptian football player Mohamed Salah was badly injured, the kids felt the need to contribute and share their messages of love and support and so they did as they were encouraged by our teachers to do so. Before the start of Ramadan the kids had also collected a generous amount of money to give back to our nannies and handymen, full Ramadan boxes to accommodate their needs during the holy month. In the spirit of kindness and love, our Lower Elementary students held their end of year shows in the school theater and our Upper Elementary kids celebrated their end of the year differently! Further news on each class found in the Newsletter.
