    If there’s something you’re never bored of doing, pursue it. At least try it. I’ve never seen my job as “work”, I see it as I’m being paid to do what I love and learn what I love.

    It is very important to us as parents that our child is part of a happy and vibrant learning community...I can still recall the excitement in Sagarika’s eyes at the Jumeirah College Open Day. The school encourages its students to develop a spirit of independence, and when Sagarika developed her website, while still a Year 7 student, Jumeirah College was quick to recognise her efforts and provide encouragement.

    FPS has been a home like no other to me. It’s a place that has made me who I am in a million different ways; has expedited my growth by giving me a plethora of opportunities to explore my academic and non-academic passions, and by offering an incredibly diverse landscape in which I have made lifelong friends, who I consider akin to family.
