Sewa is a sanskrit word that means to sacrifice your time and resources for the benefit of others without wanting anything in return. Sewa is a universal concept which involves performing an act of kindness without expectation of reward. It is performed selflessly and without an ulterior motive. At GWA our SEWA projects aim to relieve hardship and bring a little bit of joy to blue collar laborers and non-qualified staff in the UAE. Students are given the opportunity to volunteer and organize collection drives to support this.
Dear Parents,
As part of our Unit of Inquiry “Tell me a story”, we will be exploring the different ways stories are told. Next week we will be focusing on oral story telling. Please orally tell your child an interesting story about when he/she was a baby. Your child will then tell the same story to his/her friends in class. The children can bring in a baby picture to support their baby tale. Please find our class story telling schedule below. If you have any questions about this activity feel free to contact me.
