Note from the Principal’s desk We are well into the first term of this academic year. I just realized that it is three months since I joined here. Days and weeks have flown by! There was so much to do, and thankfully a lot of what was planned IS done. The branch is streamlined, and all systems seem to be in place now. The automated process only begins when there are no gaps, and everybody does their assigned job. Now the branch work rolls on. I look forward to your constructive criticism and continued cooperation. With my best regards, Firdaus Almakky
