I am delighted to extend my warmest greetings as the Principal of Liwa International School Al Qattara, Dr. Adrianna Chestnut. With over a decade of experience in educational leadership, I am honored to be a part of this esteemed institution, where we uphold international standards inspired by national values.

Originally from Cleveland, Ohio in the United States, my passion for education has taken me on a remarkable journey. For the past six years, I have been serving as a school leader in the UAE, immersing myself in the rich culture and educational landscape of this diverse country. It is an absolute privilege to contribute my expertise and dedication to Liwa International School Al Qattara.

At Liwa International School Al Qattara, we are committed to providing an exceptional educational experience that meets and exceeds international standards while being rooted in the values and traditions of our host country. Our mission is to nurture well-rounded individuals who are equipped with the knowledge, skills, and character traits necessary for success in a global society.

As the Principal, I am wholeheartedly devoted to supporting the holistic development of our students. Through a student-centered approach, we prioritize the unique needs, interests, and aspirations of each learner. We foster an inclusive environment that celebrates diversity, where every student feels valued, accepted, and empowered to reach their full potential.

Here at Liwa International School Al Qattara we are focused on the following:

L – Learning: We are dedicated to cultivating a love for learning, fostering curiosity, and providing a dynamic educational environment that inspires intellectual growth.

I – Inclusivity: We embrace the richness of our multicultural community, promoting an inclusive and respectful environment where everyone feels a sense of belonging.

Q – Quality Education: We are committed to delivering a high-quality education that adheres to rigorous international standards while instilling the values and traditions of our nation.

On a personal note, I am not only an educational leader but also a proud parent. My son, Yousif, brings immense joy and inspiration to my life, further deepening my understanding of the joys and challenges of raising children. As a Principal, I am dedicated to creating a nurturing and stimulating environment that fosters the growth and well-being of every child entrusted to our care.

I strongly believe in fostering strong partnerships with parents and the wider community. Together, we can create a supportive network that enhances the educational experience of our students. Open communication, collaboration, and engagement are essential elements in shaping the future of our school.

I am thrilled to embark on this journey as the Principal of Liwa International School Al Qattara. With our shared commitment and dedication, we will empower our students to become compassionate, responsible, and globally-minded citizens.
