Arabic School & Parking!

On Saturday the kids Arabic school started at last, the school did what Libya did, that is to postpone school until after Ramadan, this is a new trend that I can not get, when I was a child in Libya we used to go to school in Ramadan, anyway the Arabic school changed premises too, now they are based in Wembley which is still not far but I wonder what the reason is that they had to change places!! I do know that in the old place they had problems with the school owners, remember that those places are normal English schools during the week but are rented out on Saturday and or Sunday to schools of faiths and languages, the problem I witnessed before was the typical ignorant attitude of many Arabs and Muslims that have no consideration for anyone else, many would drive their cars through the driveway and leave them there blocking the one way system, the headteacher of the Arabic school used to urge parents through his loud speaker every single Saturday not to leave their cars there, he even mentioned that the authority threatened not to renew their Saturday school contract if the parking problem is not sorted! I wonder if this is the reason we have a new school and how long it will be before some of the parents find another ignorant activity to practice!!

The new school is actually a very old and creepy school, both of my kids loved it straight away because they said it reminded them of Hogwarts the school in the Harry Potter films, I too thought the school was great.

The day went well Alhamdulellah and hopefully the kids will soon get back into the routine of the Arabic school, it is not easy for them as they loose a day of their weekend and get extra home work but they understand they have to do it.
