Welcome to our DAA Parent Community 

DAAPA

For Students, by Parents.

March 13th, DAAPA hosted its annual Iftar on campus, bringing together the vibrant DAA community. Families, leadership teams, teachers, and support staff united for a memorable evening, enjoying savory and sweet buffet spreads from Hadoota Masreya and Al Shorfa restaurants. The event was made even more special with students’ Quran recitation and informative speeches as well as engaging Ramadan trivia organized by DAA’s Islamic Department. Additionally, a captivating performance of the traditional “Tannoura” dance, created a night filled with culture, connection, and celebration.


As you all know, a portion of the ticket sales generated went towards support staff Ramadan meals, and that what happened on Thursday, March 20th, with your support, we managed 210 Ramadan Meals to all our support staff & we THANK YOU ALL for your support in that 🙏🙏❤️❤️ .. the support staff was so happy & appreciated to you all .. Thank You 


DAAPA would like to wish you all a great Spring Break .. and for those of us fasting, I wish that our fast and prayers are accepted  .. wish you all a Eid Mubarak too .. May God bless you all .

BOOK CLUB

For February, DAAPA book club chose to read The Spy and the Traitor by Ben Macintyre, a non-fiction narrative blending espionage, history, and thrilling storytelling. Although reviews were mixed, the book allowed us to reflect, question, and try understanding the complexities of loyalty and patriotism. We gave it a 4/5 as this book sparked lively conversation.


We are looking forward to more thought-provoking conversations in our March meeting! 


If you’re a DAA parent interested in expanding your literary adventures and connecting, we’d love for you to join us. Sign up and be part of our next meeting.

HIKING CLUB

DAAPA’s Hiking Club reached two challenging summits!  


Al Shahs (330 Meters) and Al Rabi (400 Meters) each with spectacular views of the Gulf of Oman and the city of Khorfakkan. 


During the winter months, DAA Parents meet at morning drop off, car pool to the hike location, and then set off on an adventure. The trail today allowed us time to get a rewarding cup of coffee at the end of the hike for the car ride back to school. We arrived back to DAA in plenty of time for pick up. 


If this sounds like a good day out for you, please join us for our next adventure!  https://chat.whatsapp.com/HDANYMEmlPrDtLcBSoEVx6
