Students from across the Green Lane Madrasah programme came together at Green Lane Masjid and Community Centre in March for a special Eid Party in Birmingham. The afternoon gave children the chance to enjoy games, food, and group activities, while also spending time with classmates and teachers outside the usual lesson setting. For many students, it was a rare opportunity to meet face to face and celebrate Eid together as part of the wider Green Lane Madrasah community.
Students and teachers celebrate together at the Green Lane Madrasah Eid Party
One of the most valuable parts of the day was the opportunity for students and staff to connect in person. Whether students attend online or onsite classes, the event created space for them to meet beyond the usual learning environment and enjoy each other’s company in a more relaxed setting.
For classmates who may normally only see each other during lessons, the Eid Party offered something different: time to talk, laugh, and build stronger friendships. That sense of connection is an important part of madrasah life and helps turn regular attendance into a real sense of belonging.
Games, activities, and food made the day memorable
There was plenty for students to enjoy throughout the afternoon. Younger children were excited by the bouncy castles, while others spent time around the pool table, giant Connect 4, and PlayStation games. The atmosphere was lively throughout, with friendly competition, conversation, and lots of smiles.
Food also played a big part in the celebration. Students were treated to drinks, snacks, and hot pizza, which gave everyone the chance to sit together, relax, and enjoy the occasion. Simple moments like these often become the most memorable, especially when shared with friends and teachers.
Why events like this matter for madrasah students
For many students, one of the most enjoyable parts of the afternoon was spending time with their teachers outside the classroom. Conversations that normally happen in class felt more relaxed over games, food, and shared activities. That time together helps strengthen trust, confidence, and a sense of belonging, all of which support a child’s learning and development.
At Green Lane Madrasah, teachers are more than instructors. They are mentors, role models, and a steady source of encouragement. Events like this reflect the same care that shapes our Qur’an recitation, memorisation, and Islamic Studies programmes throughout the year.
The event ended with an engaging quiz that brought everyone together. Students worked as teams, enjoyed some friendly rivalry, and rounded off the afternoon with plenty of energy and laughter. By the end of the day, many left smiling and carrying sweets home with them, a fitting end to a joyful Eid celebration.
