Students’ Clubs (Masahati) are alternative learning spaces within the school. The clubs offer valuable learning opportunities in different alternative pathways and help students explore their physical, creative, and social potential. Each club is designed according to the students’ aspirations and includes a set of activities in different fields. Social and emotional learning is embedded throughout our interventions which promotes social cohesion among students from different nationalities and backgrounds. Madrasati empowers schools to engage communities and lead education reform. Teachers, volunteers and parents work together to implement improved learning initiatives and share their experiences. Towards the end of each club cycle, the student participants celebrate their journey and achievements in school events and summer camps.
Osayd captured this photo during his participation in the photography club (Capture Your Story). The photo is titled: “Even though the road seems long, there is light at the end.”
“As a teacher in the students’ clubs, I am now closer to my students… I learned more about their real personalities… their joys and sorrows… their hobbies, and some of their parents.”
“The main thing I learned from the workshop was cooperative work and the exchange of ideas with experienced teachers from different schools. I have gained a valuable experience from them.”
Madrasati works with 140 partners from the public, private and civil society sectors who provide effective programs for Madrasati schools; including development opportunities for teachers, technology in education programs, child safety and healthy school initiatives, and sports for life skills activities.
