It's a pretty big week at NACE; one that highlights both our young kids and our old kids, and allows for a special view of the work we do nurturing children in their personal, spiritual, and developmental journey.
On Tuesday and Thursday this week, we invite families interested in Christian Education to spend some time with us in the evening, introducing our schools, our vision, and what those look like each day. There are some that are looking to transfer into the older grades, but the majority of attendees are looking to see how their four- or five-year-old child will function and thrive in our schools. (If you know of someone that should be there, direct them to our website for full information and encourage them to just have a look!)
Front and centre are our Kindergarten programs where children are respected and valued as God's unique creations, learning about and experiencing God's love for them and how to respond to that amazing love. Our Kindergarten programs provide a literacy rich, stimulating, and safe environment that meets the needs of each child in his or her physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual development.
Our kindergarten students eventually grow up and into 12- and 13-year-olds, and our educational programs grow along with them. One highlight for our grade 7 and 8 students is the leadership development that happens on our annual Pioneer Camp trip. (NACE is there all week - JKCS from Monday to Wednesday and CCS from Wednesday to Friday!) We have partnered with Inter-Varsity for the past number of years to work out a program that "is designed to help students develop leadership and interpersonal skills while promoting a greater appreciation of the environment they live in and the benefits of being physically active." Pioneer camps specialize in partnering with schools to develop a program that is designed to grow and challenge students and to help achieve learning objectives. They are committed to the transformation of youth, students and graduates into fully committed followers of Jesus Christ.
From the moment they step foot in our schools as eager and nervous four-year-olds to the day they graduate confidently on their way to high school, we work with our students to unpack the marvels not only in creation, but also the skills and abilities that God has blessed them with so that they are equipped to serve in His Kingdom.
Please pray this week for each step of our schools' programs, from the beginning in Kindergarten to the culmination in grade 8... that we would honour and glorify our Lord with and through our students and their growth as His children.
