Dear Parents,
With great concern and
shock, we have noted that a few parents have again started the practice of
giving expensive gifts to teachers. A few years back when we noticed this
activity, it was advised to parents to stop this practice. However it is astounding
to note that a few parents are continuing the same, despite all our measures.
Teachers are human beings, and
they need proper and timely appreciation. Appreciating teachers is one of the
most welcome activities for the school from the parents’ end. But we have requested
parents that appreciation should be limited in the form of a
THANKING LETTER or FLOWERS or CARDS or CHOCOLATES only. The value of the same
should not be more than RO10/- (Ten riyals only)in any case.
We have noticed that
recently parents have gifted teachers with Gold rings, Gold pendants, costly
watches, costly perfumes, etc. which are in the range of RO100 – RO120/- Such
acts only create problems for other children in the school as teachers (quite
naturally being human) may show partiality towards these children and would
start expecting such gifts from other parents, etc. which in turn would blemish
your kids only.
