Head Teacher’s Welcome Message

“

The global change in the model of teaching and learning has been carefully reviewed and titivated over the years. However, the use of technology that we had been training for in the past few years and giving time to implement, had to suddenly become a reality. At Habib Girls’ School we are proud to say that our teachers were able to take on this unexpected change smoothly and successfully.

This institution has a legacy of lifelong learners who are empowered and challenged once they become a part of the Habibian community. The global model of teaching and learning has changed and evolved. But what does not change here at Habib is its history. Students and teachers who step in here, learn and grow; and when they leave, they leave to achieve.

Another major aspect of Habib that has not been replaced by the infusion of technology is the fact that everyone here remains a learner. The faculty and our students know this and never seize to acquire what is best for our wholesome development. What has not changed is our vision. We believe that every faculty member and every child is known, is safe, is challenged and is empowered. We say and take pride in the fact that once a Habibian, always a Habibian. The personality development and bonding that happens here has a lifelong impact. Our contribution to this positive development is our pride and a heritage that can never be replaced!
