The outreach took place on Saturday, July 5, 2025, and brought together six mentors who led practical sessions aimed at helping young Muslim girls navigate personal and academic challenges.

Miss Hasana Bambara opened the programme with an overview of the Network’s aims.

She said the group supports the academic, religious, and personal growth of Muslim girls and encourages shared learning between mentors and mentees.

Speaking on education, Miss Nura urged the girls to value knowledge and stay focused on their studies. She drew from Islamic teachings to link education to self-improvement and community development.

Madam Sirina A. Manan advised the students to remain consistent with their learning despite challenges. She provided practical tips on staying disciplined and encouraged the girls to treat education as a lifelong journey.

On hygiene, mentors spoke about oral care, skin cleanliness, and environmental hygiene. They explained that good personal hygiene helps maintain both physical and mental well-being.

Miss Bambara addressed menstrual health, explaining the stages of the menstrual cycle and sharing guidance on proper hygiene practices. She also spoke about sexual harassment, advised the students to recognise inappropriate behaviour, and reminded them of their right to safety and respect.

A demonstration on how to use sanitary pads was held, giving students the opportunity to ask questions and participate in the session.

The Muslimah Mentorship Network is made up of professional Muslim women who visit schools across the country to speak on topics such as sexual health, education, and self-confidence. The group continues to run its programmes through school visits and online mentorship platforms.
