A labeled water bottle, healthy lunch, and nut-free snack are required. Older children practice manners like knocking and saying Salam as part of Grace & Courtesy.

Work Cycle and Qur’an Circle: Children begin the day with Qur’an recitation, daily Duas, and Surah review, followed by independent Montessori work.  A healthy snack is provided.

Lunch & Recess: Before eating, children say Bismillah and give thanks with Alhamdulillah. After lunch, they engage in indoor or outdoor play to develop social and motor skills.

Rest & Quiet Activities: Children nap or engage in quiet reading, Islamic stories, or extended Montessori work, depending on their needs.

Afternoon Worship & Learning: After rest, children participate in Montessori lessons,  workbook tasks and a gentle One Rakah prayer practice with simplified steps.
