Ahmad

I am grateful that families are going through this together and how our healthcare workers are caring every day for the people in Qatar’s hospitals.

Noor Al-M

I am grateful to parents and the healthcare workers in Qatar. Parents, put their health at risk when they go to grocery stores to buy food for their families, and healthcare workers put their health at risk by providing medical attention to those who are affected by COVID-19.

Shaikha

Thank you for all your hard work to keep us safe by providing excellent healthcare to the residents of Qatar.

Suhib

I’m grateful for everyone involved in stopping this global pandemic, especially healthcare workers, and for the teachers who take time to teach us. You all make a difference in our lives by making it easier and safer.

Bissan

I am grateful for the healthcare workers in Qatar that risk their lives for the people in need by taking care of them. A healthcare worker has a significant impact on our country and is very unappreciated at times, so thank you for your hard work!

Mubarak

I like the amount of focus on those in need and what hospitals are doing to meet the medical needs of Qatar’s people.

Mahi

I thank all the people risking their lives every day facing this virus headfirst by risking their lives for the benefit of the country

Aditya

I am very grateful for the healthcare workers who have to work overtime so they can prevent the virus from spreading in Qatar.

Ward

I am grateful for the health workers that put their lives at risk every day.

Nour Al-Q

I am grateful for all the doctors and nurses putting their lives at risk every day to help us. It’s honorable and selfless seeing how much they’re willing to sacrifice for the sake of the others.

Mrs. Lisa

I am very grateful for all of the healthcare workers and QAST parents who are out on the frontlines keeping Qatar safe and caring for those affected by the COVID-19. You leave your families every day and put your health at risk to save the lives of others. Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and dedication to the healthcare profession.

Doha Learning Days Event Summary
Grade 8, 9 and 10 students developed their own workshops for Doha Learning Days to lead a series of sessions to 1. Build shelters for survivors of natural disasters. 2. Explore water security and 3. Enhance understanding of germs and antibiotic resistance. These sessions gave our students the opportunity to develop their collaboration, communication and leadership skills. They dealt with ambiguity and change caused by the weather, which led to new opportunities to work with pupils from Awsaj pupils teaching how and why we build bunkers, the importance of clean water, what happens to wastewater and how we reduce our water consumption.
Supporting others
As part of our students’ commitment to support others, QAST volunteered for activities throughout Doha Learning Days and worked with external organisations to gain the skills needed to give back to our community. Including volunteering for blind football coaching, supporting Go-Code programming sessions and Brain Education, which was all about promoting positive attitudes and discovering inner confidence to enhance each others strengths. Thank you to everyone who worked with us as we took our learning beyond the classroom this week ahead of the 14th WISE Summit in Doha.
