Academics – The ACE Curriculum
A = Accelerated
The student operates on a complete self-instructional curriculum, for Grade 1 -Grade 9. Each core subject consists of 12 instructional modules (PACE’s) per grade level. The student works at their own level of performance for each subject.
C = Christian
The system integrates Biblical truths and Christian character values throughout the curriculum and in the daily operation of the school. The staff always try to lead the students to the knowledge of Jesus Christ and challenges each student’s Christian walk.
E = Education
Individualisation – The student’s needs are met at their personal level of ability. Every student is required to master the subject concepts in each PACE before proceeding to the next module, thus training students to acquire quality education.
Sport
Our school is a member of SACSSA (South African Christian Schools Sports Association).
In partnership with other Christian Schools the school competes in swimming, netball, soccer, volleyball, athletics, cross country and table tennis. Students can reach national levels and go on to compete at International Convention level.
Art and Culture
Extra Curricular
Students participate in choir, chess and the local Eisteddfod.
International Student Convention
The International Student Convention encourages students to build on their experiences at National School Conventions. Participants choose from over 150 performance and non-performance events to demonstrate their achievement in a wide range of categories from chess to Bible memory and from volleyball to art.
We strive to bring education back to God, back to the Bible, back to basics, back to the individual.
