Discipline is a set of rules and regulations that remind us of the proper code of behavior. Disciplining children is important to create a safe and healthy learning environment. At ALI, We teach your child to be responsible for his/her actions. Our discipline tactics are not about controlling your child. Instead, we use discipline strategies that teach your child how to control him/herself.
Home assignments improve your child's thinking and memory. It helps your child develop positive study skills and habits that will serve him/her well throughout life. Homework encourages your child to use time wisely. Your child will have not more than 20-25 minutes of work for all assignments. You are requested to help your child give you a report on the material he/she has at school daily, and be aware of the items sent home with him/her.
Children are able to purchase items from the canteen at recess and lunch (Sunday to Thursday). Pocket money is a great way to help children learn the basics of managing money. So, please give
your child a reasonable amount of pocket money
( not more than 20 L.E), and encourage him/her to select healthy items after checking the canteen list.
