I would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to all of those who came along and a particular thank you to the Friends of Doha College for their excellent work in making the event so special and memorable. I am sure they would also join me in thanking the many staff members who supported the event - from the facilities and marketing teams to the many teachers who ran stalls or simply attended with their families.
This week in College, our Chair of the Board of Governors, Eduardo Vieira hosted our Annual Parents Forum, and huge thanks again to all those parents who attended and who were able to hear about some of the College’s successes over the past academic year and discuss our plans for the future. It was wonderful to be able to answer the questions that were posed and to say a huge community thank you to the parents, staff members and other governors who volunteer their time so generously to help with the strategic oversight of the College.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone.

We kindly request that students wear an element of purple in their school uniform that day. For example, this could be purple shoes, purple hair ties or a purple wristband. Students who are participating in events, such as, choir should not wear purple on this day but their regular school uniform.

This unique opportunity invites parents to join us during the day for a guided tour led by the Secondary Leadership Team around our campus. The event runs from Sunday 3rd March until Thursday 7th March from 7.15am.
During the Sip and Stroll, you will have the chance to experience first-hand the vibrant atmosphere of our school and gain a sneak peek into what life is like at Doha College. From our state-of-the-art facilities to our engaging learning environments, we aim to provide you with a comprehensive overview of the experiences we offer to our students. Staff will be teaching with their doors open as we walk by, so you can get a true sense of what your child experiences here.
We want to emphasise that parents are warmly welcomed onto our campus post-COVID. We understand the vital role parents play in their children's education, and we are committed to fostering a strong partnership between home and school.
The Sip and Stroll event is just one of the many initiatives aimed at strengthening this relationship. We believe that by opening our doors to parents, we can better collaborate in supporting the growth and development of every student.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Sip and Stroll event and sharing the Doha College experience with you. Confirm your attendance here
