Learning the Quran in the early years

Young children have a wonderful ability to memorise. At Medina Community College, children learn short Surahs through listening, repetition and recitation together, in a calm and encouraging environment where every small step is celebrated.

Alongside the Surahs, children learn the daily Duas Muslims say throughout the day: before eating, after eating, before sleeping, when leaving home and more. These little words become beautiful habits that stay with them for life.

Connected to Arabic and Islamic Studies

Quran learning sits alongside our Arabic and Islamic Studies lessons. As children learn Arabic letters and sounds, they begin to recognise them in the Quran, and through stories of the Prophets and the life of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, they come to understand the meaning and the love behind what they recite.

Part of a complete early learning program

Quran is one part of our Islamic Preschool Program, which also includes English literacy, numeracy, school readiness and play-based learning, so children grow in faith while preparing for school.
