PRINCIPAL WELCOME

Welcome from Michelle Thomas

Michelle Principal

I am delighted to welcome you and your children to GEMS Al Barsha National School (GNS). At GNS, we are dedicated to nurturing the potential of every child and empowering them to become responsible global citizens. 

Central to our mission at GNS is our commitment to delivering a top-class British education that honours the values and traditions of the UAE. Our school ethos of HAWIATEE (Hardworking, Ambition, Wellbeing, Innovation, Agility, Trust, Empathy, Excellence) serves as the foundation upon which our students' growth and success are built. These values are integrated into every aspect of our curriculum and school life.  

At GNS, we prioritise creating an inclusive and supportive environment where every student feels valued and inspired to achieve their personal best. Our curriculum blends the British curriculum with elements of Arabic language, literature, and culture, ensuring our students develop the skills, knowledge, and global perspective necessary to thrive in an interconnected world.  

Please come and see the school in action as I know you will not be disappointed.
