Therefore the Result is handed over only to parents / registered guardians. You all must avail this opportunity and come yourself to receive the Result (don’t bring any children /babies along). Tutors, uncles, aunts, brothers, sisters, servants or drivers are not allowed to collect the Result.

3. Parent-Teacher Meetings:

Parent-teacher meeting is a time to discuss ways and means not only to raise the academic standards of your child but also to help him develop into a better individual. Teachers need your support to do their job well and we appreciate and acknowledge the interest and co-operation extended by most of you. We have a system of three formal meetings with parents in a year, i.e., at the time of Summer Home Assignments submission, on Mid-Year / Send-up and Annual Examination Result Days. Special Parent-Teacher Meetings are held whenever needed. You can meet with the subject or class teachers as many times a year as you think is required for the better progress and personality development of your child. But you are advised to take an appointment one day in advance and inform the Admin staff, whom do you want to see and what for, so that necessary data can be obtained. Do check telephonically the presence of the required teacher / Admin staff on the morning of the meeting day in order to avoid any inconvenience.

Events Round-Up

I.                   International Project:

LIMS had the honour of being the first private school of KPK, to win  the International School Award from the British Council in 2012 for three years (2012—2015). In order to apply for the reaccreditation of the Award, we have to carry out various curriculum based activities this year, along with our regular co-curricular and extra-curricular undertakings. The activities undertaken so far in different Sections included the following:

1.K.G. & Primary Section:

      i)  Visit to Naran Park & Zoo: An educational cum recreational visit to Naran Park was organized for Students of Class K.G. ( R & B ) on April 20, 2017. All students along with their teachers had a great day where they not only observed and learnt the names, movements, sounds, size, colour and shape of different birds and animals found in the Naran Zoo, but also played various games and enjoyed their snack together. Bus ride from school to the Park and back was also a new experience for a big majority. The next two weeks had been the follow up activities-weeks, where students did curricular work related to the visit in English, Urdu, Mathematics, Arts and Environmental Studies’ classes.

       ii) My Colourful World : The second Activity for the Kindergarten Section was celebrating the colour week with the theme My Colourful World from 8^th to 12^th May, 2017 . Classes from Reception to 1 were given different days and separate colours to show them the beauty added to the world due to the presence of colours. Children and teachers wore dresses of the given colour, brought snack items/ food items, toys, other objects and performed various activities including finger/ hand / vegetable printing, collage work, jelly/ juices/ shakes making, identifying/ sorting, playing colour games, singing rhymes about colours, watching videos, showing/ telling , learning names of colours in English & Urdu and preparing Primary and Secondary Colours. Follow-up Arts, English, Urdu and Mathematics activities related to colours continued for another two weeks.  

iii) Learning A New Language: As part of the Language Learning Activity, the students of Lower Primary Section are learning Balti language from the students of their national partner school i.e., Anchan Public School, Skardu through Skype sessions. Reciprocally, LIMS children are teaching them a little bit of Pashto language. So far two Skype sessions have been held, the first one being the ice-breaking and the second for learning the Courtesy words in each other’s language. Students of both institutions enjoyed interacting with each other and learning the correct pronunciation of both the languages.

2. LIMS Girls’Section:

i) Land Pollution—Recycling:

LIMS Girls’ Section carried out a series of activities as one of the components for ISA, with the theme of Pollution Prevention and Recycling. Students of classes IV to VIII enthusiastically took part in the project which aimed at creating awareness among the students of the school, staff and visitors, about the roles each one of us can play in the reduction and prevention of all forms of pollution. Parents of the students and family members of the participants of the activities were invited to the school where they saw and appreciated the work their children had done. They not only focused on the content on Pollution and its prevention present in their text books but also did extra research for these concepts by using their creativity and imagination for making wonderful, use-able items from recycled material.

ii) Save Water Save Life: Water being the most essential component of life needs to be used with special care but unfortunately it is being used ruthlessly. In order to create awareness among students, staff and other members of society about this burning issue and to inculcate in them a sense of responsibility, students of Class IV to VIII undertook a project called Save Water Save Life. They made models, prepared beautiful charts and Power Point Presentations, collected thought provoking quotes and relevant articles from Newspapers, wrote essays, searched the Net to find out about the existing situation of water scarcity, and proposed ways to save this vital resource.     

iii)  Language Learning: Girls of Class VIII R had two rounds of Skype sessions with SMPN Nigeri Secondary School, Cimahi City, West Java, Indonesia. Students of both Schools partnered with each other to learn basics of Indonesian language and to teach Urdu to them. The first round was the introductory session and in the second one they exchanged courtesy words in Urdu and Indonesian language. The girls on both the parts enjoyed the activity very much and found it very interesting and beneficial. The Skype interactions will continue after the Mid-Year Examination to learn other words/ sentences in each other’s language.

3) LIMS Boys’ Section:

i) Building a Better Society Together:

 LIMS has always been associated with local orphanages of Peshawar, providing them with aid and donations on a regular basis. We provide our students with practical opportunities to learn about the benefits of charity and philanthropic activities.

One such orphanage of Peshawar the Khyber Kore was visited by our staff and students of classes VII, IX and X on 11^th , 16^th and 25^th May, 2017 respectively, taking with them  snacks, books and gifts bought with their own money. No compulsion was imposed on the students, whatever they bought they bought from their own will and every one of them tried to give as much as they could. This was a valuable lesson for our students, in being grateful for the things Allah has provided them, that many others do not have. A Needs Assessment was done by our students and teachers and it was found out that the orphanage was in dire need of room coolers and wardrobes for the children. Everyone in the school chipped in money and alhamdulillah we provided the Khyber Kore with 3 room coolers and 3 large wardrobes. May Allah be pleased with the charity that all of us gave open-heartedly. Ameen.

II.                New Chief Captains, House Captains and Class Captains:

Dear Parents,

Please note that the Saturdays falling on the following dates will be working for all classes (from Reception to X) to cover up the loss caused by the extra holidays given due to longer Summer Break owing to excessive heat and Ramazan.

Dated: August 17,2017

Dear parents, 

By the grace of Allah LIMS has started with a day care facility for caring after children/babies from ages three months to three years. Due to lack of space we were unable to start this service earlier, even though countless parents had requested for such a service. But Alhamdulillah, we have built a separate section dedicated only for a day care facility. The day care started from the 15th of February 2017.

We provide the children with a safe environment, away from the rest of the school's activities and children. The day care is right next to the guard's room and the main gate for an easy and safe access to the parents. A teacher is present throughout the day to take care of and groom the children in a professional and an educated manner, along with an aya.
