Manchester: The Forum of Muslim Organisations Greater Manchester (FMO) organised a seminar at Cheadle Mosque on “How to Deliver School Visits to Mosques”, in collaboration with Equilibria, ISB, AHMA and CMA.
A large number of imams, volunteers, mosque committee members, community members and trustees attended the event.
The speakers shared their views and gave presentations on how mosques can organise successful school visits. The participants showed great interest in different topics, including mosque governance and procedures, dos and don’ts of mosque visits, and how to organise fun and interactive visits for primary school pupils and meaningful visits for secondary school students.
The seminar also included discussions on the ideal school visit, governance, risk management, safeguarding and planning. The session was interactive, giving participants the opportunity to share their views and ask questions.
Attendees also watched videos produced to help teachers and students learn more about Islam in Religious Education (RE) classes.
Sara Saigol also answered questions and thanked everyone for attending the seminar. Refreshments were served at the end of the event.
