Dubai Ladies Club Event
TCGJ helped Dubai Ladies Club host an event to celebrate motherhood. Our job was to provide a whole range of fun and age-appropriate activities that would keep all the children happy while the mothers enjoyed workshops on 'The Art of Living' and jewellery making. Have a look and see the sorts of things the children (and some mothers!) were able to enjoy thanks to the efforts of our fabulous staff - who gave up their Saturdays for the cause!

Market Day
Market Day on 25 March 2010 proved a roaring success and enabled the children to put into practice various maths concepts while having a huge amount of fun. Best of all was the pride they felt when the parents snapped up the super items they'd made to sell. After Spring Break, they'll vote democratically on how to spend their hard-earned profits!

Family Fun Day 1
We celebrated the end of our 'Healthy Mind, Body and Soul' topic with an activity morning in Jumeira Beach Park on 11 Feb 2010. Parents, guardians and nannies streamed in, setting up picnic rugs, sun shades (and sun lotion stations!) all around the play areas. The children had bags of fun testing all the play equipment, loving the fact that their parents were with them, sometimes even training them in playground 'best practice'!

Learning Via Patterns
The children have been hard at work in their maths lessons, investigating the many ways in which we see patterns in everyday life. In doing so, they've created some really fantastic artworks we're all very proud of.

Healthy Teeth!
Drs. Hadi & Hofmann, an established dental clinic in Jumeira, came and presented their school programme to our children.
The dentist played a short video, 'Barney going to the dentist,' demonstrated how to brush teeth with a fabulously huge toothbrush and gave each child a goodie bag afterwards!
Have a look at us learning about teeth!

Bake Sale
The first Bake Sale in TCG Jumeira took place on the 10th of December 2009. Thanks to the parent's great support we managed to raise AED360 which will be spent in the school environment for the advantage of everyone. The experience was enjoyed by everyone, learning how to count, how to pay and enjoy a tasty piece of cake!

Classroom Antics
Our programme is all about engaging the emotions of each child, because if children can develop an emotional connection with what they are learning or with the person teaching it, this is how they learn best.
And that means packing a lot of fun into daily life! It's just as possible to have fun in the classroom as it it to have fun in our Adventure Garden. Have a look at these pictures to see what we mean!

Professional Development Day
Together with the TCG Green Community team we all had a very interesting development day. The morning started with a motivating workshop on Communication, Positive Thinking and changes in life. After a group lunch some of us went to Jam Jar for a creative session for many ideas! It was a great team building experience and our creative minds were working hard! Check out the amazing paintings that came out of the day's session.
