Students from Foundation and Year 1 enjoyed a real Hajj simulation incursion where they learnt about the various Hajj rituals from our dedicated staff. Students had the opportunity to make Tawaf around a Kaaba model, make Sai' and toss wooden beads at a model Jamarat Tower. At the end of the incursion, students were provided with 

real Zam-Zam water to drink after making dua.

The year 5 & 6 students had the opportunity to partake in ICOM's first Virtual Reality Hajj incursion. Students were super excited to use the headsets and journey off to Mecca where they learnt various rituals of the Hajj pilgrimage. The incursion provided students 

with an almost life-like experience.
