If you were to look up the definition of the word "Respect" in a google search, you would find that it refers to the "feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities or achievements". This web search would also need to include a picture of Al Siraat Islamic representative team at the Schools Cup Competition, as they were commended by the Cup organizers for their outstanding respect.
Despite not having made it to the finals in the boys and girls competition, this feedback about our students' respect for the competition and others was more valuable. As most would know, one of our College values is indeed respect, and with this value we learn to treat others or behave in a way that shows thoughtful consideration.
Masha'Allah, our participating students did just that and more. It is this example that should be shared with others to improve both the culture in and out of school.
With Allah’s grace and blessing, Sevdet joined Al Siraat College as the Head of Physical Education & Health in January 2015 with over 10 years of experience working in youth programs, the last 5 of those years in education. Alhamdulillah.
Sevdet has grown up with a passion to organise and develop programs. Prior to his years working in education, he has had unique work experience facilitating sport and recreation programs for young male and female offenders in the Parkville Youth Justice Precinct.
Sevdet has also had many camping experiences, coordinating leadership programs and camps for youth living in Carlton, as well as young male offenders from within the Malmsbury Youth Justice Centre.
Sevdet aims to contribute his experience and enthusiasm for sports and camps to the College in an effort to help build well rounded sports students, who can participate in community sports for good health and leisure beyond their schooling lives, inShaAllah.
