3. Christian education is a vital component in the transforming process by which students become the people that God intends them to be. The Mission To serve families who desire an education that is distinctly Christian To train students to identify and achieve their God-given potential To introduce the ACE program as the preferred pre-school system in Mozambique Vilanculos Christian School utilises the Accelerated Christian Education system

4. The ACE system recognises that each child has a unique learning style with God-given abilities and talents and was developed with a learning approach that accommodates learners’ individual capabilities. ACE provides curriculum materials in bite-sized, achievable work texts. The ACE programme instils moral values and Biblical principles in the life of each learner. Character traits such as honesty, kindness and loyalty are taught within the learner and teacher support materials. Philosophy A student must be on a level where he can perform. A student must set reasonable goals he can achieve in a set period of time A student must be controlled and motivated. A student’s learning must be measurable. A student’s learning must be rewarded. Teach them how to live, not just how to make a living!

5. The SHAPE program is active in reaching out to local and underprivileged children The SHAPE program is a pre-school program package designed with all the recourses needed for 20 children for 1 year. SHAPE Centres teach children reading and basic math skills but, most important, introduce them to Jesus Christ through God's Word. Many children and families are being impacted as a result of people willing to give of their time and resources to the Lord. Just R300 will be enough to give one child the opportunity to read, write, and learn about Jesus. For R6000 a group of 20 children will be able to complete the program in a SHAPE Centre.

6. The LEAP program is a multi-sensory, phonetic learning-to-read programme. This lively and entertaining 15 week programme features cartoon characters and includes songs, poems, displays, and character-building activities. This programme is designed for learners 7 years and up or who are entering grade 1. The LEAP kit contains a complete Teacher’s Training Guide which shows a teacher exactly how this programme will work. For R4000 a group of 20 children will be able to complete the LEAP program. We need individuals who will partner with us to reach these children.

10. The Seed to seed project is committed to sharing resources, skills, labour, and ideas, and to exploring new approaches to the challenge of living in an ecologically sustainable way. The central challenge of our time is to create and maintain sustainable communities— social, cultural and physical environments in which we can satisfy our needs and aspirations without diminishing this potential for future generations. Give a man a fish and he will be hungry tomorrow, Teach a man to fish and he will be able to feed himself and his family for more tomorrow's. Millions of dollars of aid and food gets poured into Africa each year. The poor never get to enjoy any of this ’aid’ as it is siphoned away. Moreover a dependency is created with these hand-outs. The Seed-to-seed project aims to empower these poorer people to create gardens and a seed co-op to be able to feed themselves tomorrow. The Seed-to-seed project will only use open pollinated seeds. The project will operate according to “Farming God’s way” principles Proper organic farming principles will be used and taught.

11. The Methodology Me I will teach 2 farmers this season They will teach 2 farmers next season Exponential growth Simply put … Give seeds to 2 others and train them. Plant seeds for vegetables for yourself Nurture plants and harvest vegetables to eat. Keeping 1 plant for seed. Harvest seeds for next season. Give seeds to 2 others and train them

12. School Gardens Children have a natural affinity for the living world. School gardens are a powerful means of instilling lifelong environmental and nutritional literacy among children. These gardens can serve as living laboratories for hands-on exploration and learning, and seed saving can be a strong component of teaching Eco literacy. The outdoor classroom fosters critical thinking skills and increases retention rate in many subject areas, including math, social studies, science, nutrition, and geography. Gardens and seed saving bring nature to children at a scale that can fully engage them. We aim to start a school garden with every school. For a small donation a group of 20 children will be able to make their own organic garden. We need individuals who will partner with us to feed these children.
