We had a Radio professional from Oryx Radio who came to our Radio Station! His name is Axel Pierre Yves Carre and we had the pleasure to have him helping us to prepare our program for Qatar National Day. We had a very nice time and we learnt a lot from him.

Thanks for your visit, Mr. Axel and you are welcome to come again!

Every two years, WISE holds a 3-day summit where over 1500 researchers, professionals, and innovators are united to share their ideas. On the 14th of November, the eighth graders participated in the event they explored different technological advancements and tools such as Little Bits. They explored different innovations, one example is the 3D printer. Students enjoyed the different presentations in the different Learning Labs. On the 15th of November, the seventh graders visited the event, looking at the different presentations and Learning Labs available. One the 16th, the 12th graders visited the summit, they learned about teamwork and engaged in activities that would help them practice collaboration and exploration of ideas as a group.

Last Monday 30th October, the school celebrated International Day from 11:00 onwards in the Main Hall, Gym, Cafeteria, and Library. Students enjoyed food from around the world. In the Main Hall we had Europe, in the Gym we had Africa, in the Cafeteria we had North and South America, and in the Library we had Asia and Middle East. We also had performances and activities.

International Day is a day to celebrate different countries and their traditions as well as celebrate each student’s appreciation for learning. We had a look at the global culture and how it connects to the learning conducted in class. In the beginning of the term, new students from different cultures came and showed their different cultural backgrounds, on International Day everyone had a chance to reflect upon this experience and celebrate this school’s diversity.

Students showed their understanding of different cultures and traditions through performing and presenting their knowledge on inquiry based questions about different continents around the world.

We hope you had a very Happy International Day!

It is that time of year again, where students from each class compete with each other to be part of the Student Council team. This week has been filled with enthusiasm, as students from different grades have started campaigning and convincing their fellow classmates to vote for them. Posters have been displayed around school, speeches have been made, as each candidate is eager to win the election. Each class elected two students, one as their class president and the other as their vice president. The Student Council aims to make SEK Qatar a better place, providing a voice for the students of the school. Here is the list of the Student Council of 2017-2018.
