Key Notices

Please see the below suchna for you or your baalak.

KENDRA IS CLOSED - VIRTUAL KENDRA OPEN
You should have received an email detailing Shishukunj's decisions following the governments advice on COVID-19. We have decided to close Kendra until September 2020. We will send an email closer to the time if plans change for Autumn Term. 

We have now kicked off Virtual Kendra which is going very well. Take a look at our web page to find out what has been going on. 

Normal Kendra Timings 
Core Kendra - 8:45am to 12:45pm
Worforce and Leadership - 8:30am to 1:45pm
Baal Mandir - 10.30am to 12:45pm

Arriving @ Kendra
If your baalak is under the age of 12 please ensure you drop your baalak to the Choki Desk and sign them in. There will be some limited parking on Kendra (if you arrive early) or you can park on a road nearby (Locket Road, Kenton Lane, College Hill Road, ...). Please ensure you respect the local community and do not block any driveways. If your Baalak arrives later than 9 AM they will be marked in late. 

Picking Up @ Kendra
All baalako will be in their dastas in the hall or playground or in the Hall. Please find your baalak's Dasta Nayak so they know you are taking your baalak home. 

Absence
For one off absences or leaving early please use this online form. If you will be absent for a long period of time please discuss with the Kendra Nayak by emailing harrow@shishukunj.org.uk to ensure it does not impact your baalak's development.

Leaving Early
If your baalak is leaving Kendra Early please inform our administration team at the Choki Desk in the morning to discuss the most appropriate time to pick them up without affecting our activities. If your Baalak is regularly required to leave early please email harrow@shishukunj.org.uk to discuss this with the Kendra Nayak to discuss the impact on your baalak's development.

Shishukunj Uniform 

Members are required to wear Shishukunj uniform at all times. This consists of:

  • Navy jeans, tracksuit or jogging bottoms (leggings, 3/4 length trousers or shorts are not permitted).
  • White t-shirt or long sleeved top.
  • Navy jumper (logos must be small).
  • White socks,
  • White trainers.
  • If you have your ears pierced then a single set of small studs may be worn, but all other jewellery (including wedding rings) is not permitted.
  • Nail polish is not permitted.
  • Long hair must be tied up.
Nasto and ShiPA Support
If you would like to donate Nasto, please email harrow@shishukunj.org.uk, or speak to ShiPA members at our choki desk when you arrive. We require support in three key areas this year at Harrow Kendra: parking, choki desk and big nasto preparation. If you can support Kendra and in turn support our baalako one week we will be grateful for your time. 

Gujarati Homework
Gujarati homework for all years is available here. 


VIRTUAL KENDRA IS OPEN

Unfortunately, we have had to end Spring 2020 early due to the COVID-19 virus. However, since the start of May we have kicked off our virtual platform. If your baalak is not joining then please email harrow@shishukunj.org.uk to get them involved. 

Keep healthy and well. Please get in touch if you are having any issues during this tough time.
