parent workshops

As was shared in the last SPOTS edition, DAAPA is organizing a parent workshop on Monday, February 28th. 


A WhatsApp group has been created and a link was shared on the grade WhatsApp groups for parents to confirm their attendance. 


DAAPA is planning a parent workshop, courtesy of Ostaz (www.ostaz.com), an EdTech startup, part of the UK-based Inspired Education Group. For more information about Ostaz, you can visit their website: www.ostaz.com


For this workshop, we will be diving into “Goal Setting” with the help of Life Coach Maya Hawa.


The outcome of this workshop is designed to give you an understanding of what is needed in order for you to achieve your goals. This workshop invites everyone who is searching to get more structure and to achieve their goals.

Skills learned can also be used to help our children achieve their own goals. 


The workshop will take place on February 28th from 9am-12pm, in person in Media City. 


**There is a 25 person minimum / 40 maximum capacity for the venue. If you'd like to register for this workshop, please look out for the WhatsApp group link that was shared with your specific grades and register asap, as there is a maximum capacity.
