We have been quarantined to our homes, had to wear masks outside, physically distance ourselves from loved ones and friends, and some of us have not been able to work or go to school.
Now, that some parts of our lives are making their way back to a new “normal” we want you to be prepared for some of the changes that you and your child will experience when you return back to Madrassa and Adult Classes from the week beginning of Monday 5th October 2020. It is important that we take precautions, as symptoms may not be the same for every person. To make sure this illness does not continue to spread, we intend to take all reasonable precautions, Please click onto the link below for more information about the new changes that would be implemented in this academic year 2020-21.

A big thank you extends to the vast team of staff and volunteers who played their part in setting up, packing away and running the stalls. It was an amazing community effort!

Astronomy & Islam Mornings Educational Trip

Children at the Young Muslim Academy enjoyed an educational trip to Astronomy & Islam Mornings at the Greenwich Observatory on Sunday 24th November 2019. The children enjoyed being out in the nature and walking up the hill to the observatory with their peers.
The children were well engaged in staring through the overview of the stars in the sky inside the special planetarium show. The show was very informative and educational, the children were occupied in observing the new crescent moon and discovering the instruments built for navigation and prayer that was used in the time and before the industrial revolution.

After the planetarium show Brother Imad did a short talk about sighting the new moon and the facts regarding the months of Islam. We also had a discussion about the differences between the Islamic calendar and the Gregorian calendar. Couple of pupils were chosen to come to the front and demonstrate the calculation of how to find out when the Islamic month has started.
