​Dear ADNOC SAN Community- 


I have been a proud member of the ADNOC-SAN community for over 8 years, where excellence in education meets a nurturing environment for holistic growth. As the proud Principal of this esteemed institution, it is my privilege to extend a warm embrace to each member of our vibrant community.


Embedded within our curriculum and daily interactions are the rich and profound values of the UAE. We take pride in our strong community and celebrate the diversity of cultures and backgrounds that enrich our learning environment. Embracing Emirati values such as hospitality, respect, and tolerance, we cultivate an inclusive atmosphere where every member feels a sense of belonging and pride in their heritage.

From coding workshops to scientific inquiry projects, we provide ample opportunities for students to explore, innovate, and excel in STEM fields.


However, we understand that academic achievement is just one facet of a well-rounded education. We place equal emphasis on nurturing the social and emotional development of our students, recognizing that resilience, empathy, and interpersonal skills are essential for success in all aspects of life. Our dedicated counselors and educators work tirelessly to create a supportive environment where students feel valued, heard, and empowered to navigate the complexities of human relationships with confidence and compassion.
