To all our Families, Staff and Friends

All of us here At Global English School and Little Pearls Nursery wish you and your families every blessing during this Holy Month.

New photos were added to the album Foundation Stage Graduation.

H.E. Grace Relucio Princesa, Ambassador Extraordinary & Plenipotentiary will represent the Philippine Community at our Foundation Stage Graduation this coming Saturday. This will be an exciting opportunity for GES to honour our Philippine Community.

Members of our Philippine Families are invited to attend the ceremony which will include a stunning presentation of 'The Lion King".

The internet is an essential facet of life in the 21st century, however there are potential dangers if we do not learn how to use technology wisely and thoughtfully. By clicking on the Heading above you will be directed to CYBERSMART  an Australian Government initiative and whilst not aimed at the UAE, the information and resources provided are excellent and relevant. I would encourage parents and students to visit the site and see how you can become cybersmart.

In Abu Dhabi, residents can phone 02 512 7777 to report cases of Cyber Bullying

Facebook also have a site that explains how children can make their facebook account a safe place for them to be. This is found at http://www.facebook.com/safety
