Annual Awards and Graduation Celebration
Each year, we love celebrating and honouring each child's achievements, dedication, and growth throughout the year!
From children in Kindergarten through to our Senior Secondary Graduates, we have awards for diligence, character and academic achievements that can be applied for by parents, which will be presented to each child at one of our annual Celebration events.
We centre each celebration around a scriptural theme, with last year’s being:
"But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ." 2 Peter 3:18
This year, we will be holding our Celebration online, allowing families from near and far to come together and share in this special occasion. Although we are unable to gather in person, we look forward to making this event a memorable one as we celebrate our children's achievements, growth, and dedication throughout the year. Most importantly, we give glory to Father God for the fruit of your partnership with Him in homeschooling your children.

"Whatever you do, do it heartily, as for the Lord and not for people." Colossians 3:23
One of the key A.C.E. Character Traits of Christ that children need to develop for life, through their homeschooling studies, is diligence - steady, earnest effort, hard work, persistence and commitment in fulfilling one's responsibilities or set work. Parents' can nominate their child for receiving this award if they have consistently shown diligence in their effort in completing their work, organisation, goal setting or time management, throughout the year. You can list/choose one (1) to three (3) key indicators to appear on their certificate.
Scripture Award
"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path." Psalm 119:105
Recognising the child who memorised and recited between 8-12 of our 12 scripture passages from throughout the year, as included in our monthly newsletters. You will need to have submitted a Scripture Memory form, listing each passage memorised and recited with the corresponding month.
Character Award
"Being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you, will carry it on to completion, until the day of Christ Jesus." Philippians 1:6
Throughout the PACE workbooks, children are taught A.C.E.'s 90 Character Traits of Christ. The character strips included in each PACE illustrate how these traits can be applied in real life situations, through the way each character responds in the stories. Parents' can nominate their child for receiving this award by choosing one (1) to three (3) of the following 90 Character Traits of Christ, which their child has consistently grown in or shown throughout this year.
