U/9 Boys Hockey team enjoyed a exciting day playing their first tournament

On the 23rd of August, two U/17 athletes Maria Muchenje and Theophelus Nkala participated in the Capricorn Marathon at Flora Park Comprehensive. They ran 6km with Theophelus, coming out in third place and Maria scoring first place. They shared their struggles and hardships when preparing for this event, and they even felt like giving u and not participating. Then, in their desperate time of need, they put the event in God’s hands, and they walk away with their heads held high and medal around their necks at the end of the day.

This event marks a significant fulfilment of the great commission written in Matthew 28:19, “Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.”

I just want to thank Eagle’s Nest Christian School for enabling me to reach greater heights as a leader and as a person. I appreciate the exposure to debate, the writing competition, outreach programs, leadership and sports activities, and an exceptional education. All these form the core of my United Nations profile. Many students take these opportunities for granted and are quick to forget that these very opportunities build us up and add to our credibility in society.

Eagles Nest Christians School wrote the International Benchmark Tests every year to ensure we keep up with the International standards. This is a world-class, skills-based diagnostic assessment designed by a global expert to help improve school learning. The IBT is not tied to a specific curriculum, allowing for fair comparisons between students across schools and worldwide, and content is updated every year. This year, we had the following learners who did exceptionally well.

The Eagles Nest senior debate team emerged victorious in a heated showdown against Stanford Lake College, securing the prestigious Mayor’s Cup. Among more than 25 participating schools in the annual Polokwane Executive Mayor’s Cup, several were eliminated in the preliminary rounds. Despite formidable competition from schools like Capricorn High School, Veritas, and PEPPS, the Eagles persevered, ultimately defeating Stanford Lake College in the finals. Ruth Phiri’s eloquence earned her the title of best speaker in both the semi-finals and the finals.
Reflecting on their journey, Dr. Mac van den Berg, the executive principal, remarked, “Since our debut in the Mayor’s Cup in 2010, our senior team has consistently excelled, securing the trophy in 8 consecutive years from 2011 to 2016, and now in 2022-2023.” Expressing gratitude for the victory, Dr. van den Berg extended appreciation to God, the debate coach, teachers, and the debaters for their outstanding dedication and effort.
