MOVE Program-National Charity School Dubai

Celebrating one year of the MOVE program for 250 high school students from the National Charity School Dubai. The MOVE is a one year program designed to empower underprivileged teens with the skills they need to succeed in their future careers as well as make a difference in their own communities.  Here are some of the highlights!

  • Over 70 students participated in public speaking competitions with some fantastic results!   
  • Students conducted community projects to improve their school as well as learn vital skills such as leadership, responsibility and teamworking. Some of the results were:
    • Three recycling campaigns planned and implemented by the students in the girls, boys, and primary sections of the school
    • A new sitting area constructed in the boys’ section, complete with benches, tables and green plants.
    • A new garden in the girls’ section
    • A traditional UAE heritage tent in the girls’ section which will serve as a showcase of Arabic culture as well as an enjoyable place for the students to sit in and relax.  

A special thanks to all the volunteers who helped assist with their time and expertise for these projects.

I sent some of my other teachers to Action Care's Camp Create program to observe the daily activities so they too can get ideas. Every time you have a program please bring it to our school.
