During the Morning Assembly, parents were warmly welcomed and introduced to the pupils, setting the stage for a day of collaborative learning and engagement. Each parent was then assigned to a classroom, where they took on the role of Readers, leading the first period of the day.
Acting as Readers, parents not only taught lessons but also evaluated the pupils to ensure comprehension and mastery of the material. This interactive approach provided a unique opportunity for parents to actively participate in their children's education while fostering a sense of community within the school.
