We are thrilled to celebrate our Head Girl, Sofia, who has proudly become the first member of the Class of 2026, to enter her incoming university offers in our beautiful new University Offers Book.
Thank you to the parents who, through the parents' fund, have kindly enabled this keepsake which marks a pivotal moment in our students' onward journeys, capturing the excitement and achievement of each offer received. As the pages begin to fill, we look forward to celebrating every success with the entire Year 13 cohort.
Let the memories begin and the future unfold!
Today at Dubai College, we proudly stood united with the nation to celebrate UAE Flag Day - a moment of pride, unity, and deep gratitude.
As the national flag was raised high and the orchestra played the national anthem, students, staff, and families joined voices in harmony to sing the national anthem, waving UAE flags in celebration.
The atmosphere was alive with heartfelt emotion and national spirit, made even more meaningful by the powerful poetry and inspiring speeches of our Emirati students, who beautifully expressed their love and pride for the nation.
It was a moving tribute to one flag, one nation, and one shared future.
