HKKG School

Thinktank, Birmingham Science Museum

Our Year 7 and Year 8 students had a wonderful time while recently visiting Thinktank Birmingham Science Museum.

The students took part in the exciting Forensic Investigators Jewellery Heist Workshop. During the session, students used a range of mathematical techniques to solve clues and uncover the final answer. They practiced data collection and data analysis, used magnifying glasses to enlarge evidence, and worked through calculations to help solve the mystery.

At our school, every page is a step towards growth ✨📚

A space to read, reflect, and rise - where imagination is nurtured, knowledge is discovered, and every story inspires brighter futures. 🌱💭

Our reading corner and library shelves are filled with opportunities for learning, curiosity, and endless adventures through books. 🤍

Discover, explore, learn, and grow in our school library - a calm and inspiring space filled with books, stories, knowledge, creativity, and endless opportunities to read. From fiction favourites to study resources, every shelf is packed with something new to enjoy.

From the rich aroma of freshly served biryani to the perfectly spiced kebabs and crispy samosas… our Iftar plates were a true celebration of flavour and tradition 🤍✨

Every dish brought something special to the table. The vibrant chana chaat added the perfect tangy kick, the fruit platters brought freshness and colour to the spread, and together it all created a beautiful balance of taste and nourishment after a long day of fasting. 🍛🍢🍉

And the final picture says it all - our floor spread. A simple yet powerful reminder of what Iftar is truly about. Sitting together, shoulder to shoulder, sharing food, gratitude and conversation. There’s something so heartwarming about gathering on the floor as one community, breaking our fast in unity and reflection. 🌙

It wasn’t just about the food (although it was delicious!) - it was about the togetherness, the laughter, and the quiet moments of appreciation in between.

Alhamdulillah for evenings like this, filled with barakah, community spirit, and plates full of goodness 💛

Our Grand Iftar wouldn’t have been complete without the incredible dessert stalls that truly stole the show! ✨ From the moment the covers were lifted, the room filled with excitement as everyone made their way over to explore the delicious treats on display.

There was something for everyone - beautifully decorated cupcakes, indulgent brownies, fresh fruit creations, biscuits, cakes and so many more sweet delights that looked just as amazing as they tasted. Every stall was presented with such care, creativity and effort, making it clear how much love had gone into preparing them. 🍪🎂

The smiles, the “you have to try this!”, the sharing between friends, and even the difficult decisions about what to pick first - it all added to the joy and buzz of the evening. The dessert area was full of laughter and happy chatter, and it was heartwarming to see our school community coming together over something as simple (and wonderful!) as sweet treats.

A huge thank you to everyone who contributed, prepared, and helped run the stalls. Your hard work made the night extra special and gave us the perfect sweet ending to our Grand Iftar 🌙💛

What a beautiful evening it was at our HKKG Grand Iftar 🤍 From the moment our doors opened, there was a special buzz in the air - laughter echoing through the halls, smiles shared between friends, and a true sense of togetherness that made the night unforgettable.

Our students immersed themselves in a range of creative and interactive activities. From heartfelt card-making filled with thoughtful messages, to cooking and decorating sessions where creativity (and a little friendly competition!) took centre stage - every corner of the room was alive with excitement. 🍪🎨

And of course… the two Kahoot quizzes! 🎉 The energy during those rounds was unmatched - cheers, quick thinking, and lots of happy competitiveness that brought so much joy and unity to everyone involved. The enthusiasm was contagious, and it was incredible to see our students so engaged and uplifted.

As we gathered to break our fast together, the true essence of Iftar shone through - gratitude, community, and reflection. Sharing food, conversations, and laughter reminded us of the blessing of coming together as one school family during this special month.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped organise, prepare, and participate in making this event such a success. Your efforts created an atmosphere filled with warmth, happiness, and beautiful memories that we will cherish for a long time.

Here’s to more evenings that bring hearts together and create moments that matter 🌙💛

🌍 Student Leadership in Action 🌍

A huge well done to our Year 11 students for successfully planning and delivering an inspiring Student-Led Enrichment Day earlier this month 👏

From tackling food waste with fun, practical activities 🥕♻️, to raising awareness of hidden racism and microaggressions, exploring the realities of knife crime, and opening minds through thoughtful discussions on immigration — our students showed outstanding teamwork, leadership, and commitment to positive change.

Through interactive games, debates, workshops and quizzes, students across the school engaged with important social issues and learned how these link to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, showing what active citizenship really looks like 🌱🌐

We are incredibly proud of the hard work, creativity and passion our students put into making a difference 💙

As part of their Year 11 speaking exam practice, students took part in an engaging restaurant role play in the main hall. They confidently ordered food and drinks in Arabic, demonstrating their language skills in a real-life context. The focus was on using polite and commonly used Arabic expressions when ordering, such as تفضلي، شكراً، لو سمحت، and من فضلك. The activity concluded with students enjoying a delicious Syrian meal, including traditional pastries and fresh Tabbouleh salad, making the experience both educational and culturally enriching.
