Secondary Islamic Studies Quiz Competition

On September 8th and 9th 2015, our secondary students participated in the first ever Al Siraat College Secondary Islamic Quiz.

The aim of the competition was to create excitement and enthusiasm in the students to gain Islamic knowledge, and to experience team collaboration and friendly competitiveness. A further aim was to prepare a contingent of students who will inshaAllah represent Al Siraat College in the Interschool Islamic Studies Quiz to be held in Term 4, 2015.

• Selection Process

Four entrants from each year level were selected by their class teachers according to their efforts, behaviour and term test results. Years 7-10 boys competed against one another, and the girls did the same.
