Primary students from across the province are visiting the Aga Khan Museum as part of a "Curricular Encounter".
One of the aims of the BUI Ta’lim curriculum is to make Ismaili children aware of the pluralistic world in which they live, and to develop respect, tolerance and understanding towards people of other faiths. The study of Muslim history and civilizations in the curriculum reinforces this. One of the aims of this experience is that it will enrich students connection to the Ta’lim curriculum and will enable them to reflect on the achievements of the past and how these continue to inspire us today.
This visit is open to all primary aged students. To sign up or for more information contact us at ontario.bui@iicanada.org
Ashaz Sabir, a seven year old Ismaili was nominated for the Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year Awards for being helpful to others at home, school and in Jamatkhana. Produced by the Ontario Community Newspapers Association, the award recognizes youth aged six to 17 who go above and beyond what is expected of someone their age and have a desire to make a difference.
