Al Salam Bank-Canadian School of Bahrain unveils a major initiative

Manama: Al Salam Bank has announced the opening of its educational mock-up branch at the Canadian School Bahrain (CSB), the first certified BC Curriculum school in Bahrain, as part of its Junior Banking Program. The one-of-a-kind initiative aims to provide Grade 5 and 6 students essential financial literacy skills in order to develop a solid foundation of knowledge, by embedding a heightened awareness of financial responsibility and equipping students with core life skills in the likes of the basics of money management and healthy saving habits.

At the end of the program, the students will be taken on a tour of one of Al Salam Bank’s branches to witness firsthand the ins and outs of branch operations, and receive a participation certificate from the Bank.

“We were pleased with the high turnout we saw from the students and their parents to enroll in the Junior Banking Program, which offers students a unique educational experience through which they will be equipped with the life skills they need for their futures ahead, in addition to enriching their financial literary skills. We were also pleased to see the hard work our students put in their applications for a position at the mock-up
