((Sunbula Initiative)) Ideas from the heart of schools turn into projects that make an impact

Teacher Alia Al-Ayyes spoke about the launch of the project, saying: The idea came from observing the waiting time of the evening shift students before their shift begins, and turning this time from a waiting period into an opportunity to learn and benefit, by displaying purposeful educational, health, and cultural content inside the theater, in addition to activating extracurricular and school activities on a larger scale.

The project was distinguished by the simplicity of its idea and its sustainability, making the theater a space that can be continuously employed in awareness, education, and developing students' knowledge,

The impact of the project reached a wide segment of the school community, benefiting about 400 students in the morning shift and 300 female students in the evening shift, reflecting the ability of Sunbula projects to start from simple needs within the school environment and turn them into practical solutions that make a tangible difference in the students' experience.

The "Smart Theater" represents the essence of Sunbula's methodology in encouraging schools and teachers to view daily challenges as opportunities for development, and turning ideas into applicable and sustainable projects whose impact is present in the lives of students and the school.

and teacher Reham Al-Faqir said

Observing the real need within the school environment for shaded spaces for students was evident, especially since the school is located in an area experiencing a noticeable rise in temperatures, making their provision an important and necessary matter. The project aimed to provide more comfortable and safe places for students during breaks and school activities, and to protect them from direct exposure to sunlight.

Al-Faqir pointed out that the importance of the project is not limited to adding canopies inside the school alone, but rather lies in finding a practical solution to a challenge facing students on a daily basis. The project embodies the idea that successful school initiatives start from observing the details and surrounding needs, and then working to find simple and implementable solutions
