❤️ _World Heart Day_ at GFD ❤️

We all agree that a healthy heart is the key to a healthy life! This was why we chose to mark World Heart Day...and why Mr Soar jumped in to get his blood pressure checked as a model to be real and be open about protecting our heart.

From diet changes, greater mobility and movement, health checks to meaningful conversations, every small step towards a healthier lifestyle matters. 🫀✨

Check regularly • Stay active • Eat well • Take care

Together, let’s build healthier hearts and brighter futures. ❤️

Celebrating Our Amazing Teachers Assistants

Today we shine a spotlight on the massive hard work of Teachers Assistants who play such an important role in making every school day special at GEMS Founders School – Dubai South

Their dedication, patience and care make a meaningful difference — supporting our teachers, encouraging our students and helping create a classroom environment where every child feels seen, supported and ready to learn.

From the little moments of encouragement to the countless ways they go above and beyond, their contribution truly matters.

Thank you for being an essential part of our Founders family and for helping our students learn, grow and thrive every day.

Happy Teachers Assistants Day!

We appreciate you, we celebrate you, and we’re grateful for all that you do!

It was a wonderful opportunity to showcase the learning, experiences and aspirations of our students and the vibrant community we are building together at GFD.

Grow. Flourish. Discover YOU. 💙❤️
