“This award symbolizes not only my perseverance and consistency but also the invaluable academic and emotional support received from my parents and teachers: Ms Shazia, Ms Saima, and Ms Charita. It serves as a reassuring reminder that, no matter how unbelievable it sounds, with determination and hard work, nothing is beyond your reach”, Haneen proudly expressed.
Hannen serves as an inspiration to her fellow pupils especially the sixth form pupils. She advised, “find your optimal study method through trial and error, for example, many say that studying with music is distracting and yet, it’s the only way I can study. Remember to start early, stay consistent, reach out to your teachers or older students, take sufficient breaks and trust that you can do whatever goal you set your mind to.”
