Manarat  Jeddah is a well-known school in Jeddah Saudi Arabia. When I took the task of formally finishing the project in Manarat Jeddah I gathered information. Our school was owned by the late Prince Muhamamd Al Faisal and then brainchild of three brothers named:

·  Abdul Aziz Shawi

· Ahmed Shawi and

· Khalid Shawi.
