According to our school’s most fundamental approach, the teacher represents a guide during the learning process. Recognizing that children have different ways of expressing themselves, we aim to make our students happy individuals who are aware of how they choose to express their thoughts and feelings whether through singing, painting, sculpture, dance, vocal expression and music activities.

This way, arts and sports are highlighted in our school throughout the learning process, which is supported by education and training.

Aljazari accepts the fact that language performs the biggest function when it comes to making sense of what one hears and thus shapes its programs with the understanding that every language means a new way of thinking.

Our students, having learned at a young age to express themselves on a basic level in Turkish, English and Arabic, cognitively think differently and more original than their peers. We aim for out students to acquire this skill during early childhood, where it is the easiest for them to learn a new language.

Because we believe that the ability to give meaning by hearing and comprehension can only be gained with the help of those who speak that language as their native tongue, we pay great importance to our teachers’ native language.

With the help of effective teaching methods our students get to chance to internalise rather than perceive learning as obligatory classes. In this context, a second language is included naturally into the students’ everyday life with the help of the half time method.

Because our students get to know their new language in different circumstances, from games to activities, these languages will be engraved into their minds.

On this road from love to knowledge, our students will find the opportunity to reveal their true potentials.

Our students get to learn about different branches of art by testing colours, designs, painting techniques and various instruments:

1. Science festivals

2. Water sports

3. Chess

4. Mind games

5. Set daily and weekly activities

6. Drama activities

7. Cultural trips and expeditions in nature

8. Cooking workshops

Activity and movement are ways for children to discover themselves while at the same time they gain the benefits on their health while playing.

Sportive movements allow children to breathe better which makes for more energetic and happier children.

With the use of the Kidsfit method our students will have their monthly sports activities reports released, according to which next month’s program is planned, so every students will have a program based on their needs and capacities.

During summer and winter time, sports activities are held both outside and inside in specially prepared environments.

Our students are introduced to different types and branches of sports every two months so that they are able to discover themselves and figure out which sport suites them best.

Individuals living in tune with nature, true to their own unique nature

Aljazari International School believe that children raised in a happy and and healthy way are the foundation of a healthy and conscious society.

By injecting kids with a healthy dose of love for nature and animals, we stimulate them to both have a more positive state of mind and facilitate their learning of counting, colours, fruit and vegetables while playing in our garden.

As part of our environmental activities, the children get to spend lots of time in nature and thus, by coming into contact with beings such as butterflies, worms, ants, etc. learn to respect nature.

Our students will grow up to be adults capable of taking care of themselves in nature, that are aware of the fact that our resources aren’t limitless and of the need to produce new sources constantly, adults that are respectful and loving towards humans, animals and nature alike.

The freedom they experience in nature helps develop a sense of belonging and of responsibility, shaping their everyday life in a positive way.

We offer our students the chance to steer themselves according to their curiosity by allowing them to discover and learn in nature.

In our animal and plant workshops we let them come into contact with nature frequently as well.
