Stage Two: Take Root (Ages 7-14)

This stage nurtures children ages 7–14 through one of the most formative windows of development. Children at this age want to know the why behind the what. They begin comparing, reflecting, and becoming more aware of their values, their habits, and their place in the world.

Take Root builds on the emotional and spiritual seeds planted in early childhood and offers a more structured, intentional curriculum that combines Islamic values with academic strength and emotional maturity.

We help learners:

• Develop strong moral reasoning through Islamic stories and daily habits
• Strengthen core academic skills with clarity and purpose
