Her Royal Highness Princess Hajah Hafizah Sururul Bolkiah graced the Maulidur Rasul celebration organised by Miftah An-Nur Islamic International School at the International Convention Centre (ICC) in Berakas yesterday.
Her Royal Highness was accompanied by Yang Amat Mulia Pengiran Anak Haji Muhammad Ruzaini bin Pengiran Dr Haji Mohd Yakub.
The event began with the recitation of Al-Quran verses by the school’s students – in Arabic by Year 5 Matar student Muhammad Safwan Zayed – and translation of the surah read by Year 5 Matar student Yahya Ibrahim Sabiqur.
The event was also highlighted by a description of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) by Year 5 Matar student Kayshan Suryo Muhammad Acep Prasojo in English language and Year 4 Sahab student Dayangku Nur Sofiyyah Zakiyyah binti Pengiran Md Abu Zahrin in Malay language.
Chairman of the school’s Board of Governors Haji Abu Bakar bin Ibrahim revealed that over 50 new families have joined the international school and that the new campus in Kampong Sungai Akar is scheduled to be completed in July next year.
“This means that we will be starting the next academic year in the new campus,” said the chairman.
He thanked the attendees for their continued support while adding that it is a blessing that they are gathered to celebrate the birth anniversary of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
