their choices. Students also had the opportunities to attend seminars that were presented on the day. They had an invaluable<br />

experience and gained immense insight into educational opportunities and career pathways. These will help them<br />

map out their future career plans. The behaviour and attitude displayed by all our students was exemplary and we are all<br />

very proud of our very dear students. They are great ambassadors of <strong>Al</strong> <strong>Amanah</strong> <strong>College</strong>.<br />
