Ndlambe manager, Principal of ACA and Ndlambe Mayor

Mayor, Vukile Balura and Manager George Ngesi blessed ACA by paying a courtesy visit to the school, getting themselves acquinted with this private school facility in Alexandria, that has been in existance for 7 years. Ndlambe will now have more information to use when marketing the area and this school in Alexandria. They made a remarkable impression on both learners and staff, while they were taken on a tour through the facilities and the program of individualized Christian education was explained to them. ACA salutes these two men for the remarkable job they are doing and undertakes to keep them and their families in their prayers for the key roles they are playing in Ndlambe and especially Alexandria.

On the 4^th of June at school we had a special day for our parents.  It was one of the happiest days of my life.  We had to prepare the food for our parents.  At first we sang on stage and some of the children said their Scripture and poems.  After that I had to go and sing for everyone with my brother.  I was pretty nervous but God helped me.  It was some kind of a night and the best part of my mom’s day.  She was surprised she never knew I could make such a meal she was so proud.  I learned a lesson from that day.  That took away my fears.  My mother never knew I could sing so beautifully.  It was a fun night for us the kids and our parents. So you might as well watch out you never know we might be back again.  After I sang I was speechless because I have never done it before.

Parent Appreciation Dinner

During the holiday I had the priviledge of attending a three-day bass fishing camp ath Phumla Lodge.  The lodge is run by Henry and Almarè Smith.  Although fishing took up most of our time, we had many activities to keep us busy, and even though I was super tired after the camp, I really enjoyed it and would advise everyone to give it a try!

Alexandria Christian Academy held its first ever Graduation Ceremony on 18 April 08. This event made a historical mark, with the school originating in the Zuney farm area as being Graafwater Primary School for many years.

Many of the students and their parents attended the Graafwater school. It relocated to Alexandria in 2002, where it also extended to high school, with the first ever graduates in Matric this year. This historic event was attended by all FET students, staff and governing board.
