Checklist

Madressa bag checklist for the new term

By the Madrasah Bag team

Quick answer

Before a new madressa term, spend 15 minutes on four things: check the bag (strap, stitching, zip, smell), check the Quran or Qaidah (loose pages, cover, right edition), restock the kit (exercise book, pencils, topi or hijab, name labels), and ask the teacher what's changing this year, such as moving from the Qaidah to the Quran.
