German language centre at Al Hidd Secondary School for Girls is widening the learning opportunities for students. With countries slowly reopening borders, the centre is also helping students who wish to study abroad.

The programme initiated by Sarah Al-Musayyib said the centre, so far, has given training to over 25 students. Al Musayyib, a teacher at the school, is working on the project during her free time. She holds an accreditation certificate from the AWO Institute in Dusseldorf, Germany. "Through this project, we aim at providing students with proficiency in an international language, which widens their knowledge horizons," said Al Musayyib.

"As soon as we launched the project, we received over 100 interested students, but we could not absorb all. To give them maximum focus and ensure that they master the language and speak it fluently, we turned them into batches."

The Centre, Al Musayyib said, is also helping students who wish to study abroad. "We are keen to help students with more international languages, as Arabic along with English and French are part of the curriculum." Student Nouf Bujieri expressed her happiness at learning the German language when asked about her experience at the centre. "The centre allowed me to access wonderful educational and cultural sites in this language," Bujieri said.
