Noon Academy is located in a quiet nook of a well-developed central area of Brampton. It provides a welcoming and caring environment, where each person feels accepted, valued and loved. Our low teacher to student ratio enables our teachers to connect more with their students and their families, which adds to the welcoming, home-like, atmosphere. We currently have seven technically advanced classrooms filled with innovative teaching and learning equipment, manipulatives and materials.

Noon Academy Co-FOUNDERs

Shaykh Waleed Almakee & Daniyah Flynn

Shaykh Waleed and Daniyah Flynn founded Noon Academy to help fill a void within the Muslim community in Brampton. There was a disconnect between families (children, youth and adults) their life-sustaining faith tradition. Many had difficulty with work-life balance and the resultant alienation from self and increasing family dysfunction. They were discouraged by out-dated and disengaging approaches they or their family members experienced in seeking fulfillment and guidance by connection to the Most Merciful God. Shaykh Waleed and Sister Daniyah established a caring and compassionate way of teaching religious studies using modern teaching strategies, focusing on individualized learning, together with character and life skills development.
