The Warmth of Togetherness, the Sweetness of Eid Treats
The Halal Bihalal activity at TK Al Siddiq was held with great joy on Monday, 30 March 2026. This event became a special moment for the children to celebrate the atmosphere of Eid al-Fitr together with their friends and teachers. Embracing the theme of togetherness, the children were introduced to the tradition of mutual forgiveness while enjoying typical Eid snacks that are closely associated with the festive season. All TK Al Siddiq pupils took part enthusiastically in the series of activities, held both on the Al Siddiq field and in the classrooms. The aim of this Halal Bihalal was to instil values of togetherness, forgiveness, and to strengthen relationships between the children, teachers, and older students from the primary and secondary levels. In addition, the activity sought to introduce the traditions of Eid al-Fitr to children from an early age in an enjoyable and meaningful way. It is hoped that the children will come to understand the importance of respect, sharing, and maintaining social bonds. The programme began with a morning assembly attended by all pupils. This was followed by a session of greeting and handshaking with all Al Siddiq teachers as well as older students from the primary and secondary levels, as a gesture of mutual forgiveness. The activities continued with morning murojaah (Qur’an recitation review) and the performance of the Duha prayer together, ensuring that the children not only developed social skills but also strengthened their religious values. After the worship activities, the children enjoyed snack time featuring a variety of appetising Eid-themed treats. This moment was one of the most anticipated, as the children could experience the distinctive atmosphere of Eid al-Fitr through food. The programme concluded with playtime, where the children played together with their friends before returning home feeling happy and filled with wonderful memories. Through this activity, it is hoped that the children will not only enjoy the excitement of the event but also carry home positive values that can be applied in their daily lives, particularly in practising forgiveness, sharing, and building good relationships with others.By Inka Amalia, S.
