Acts House of Education welcomes new principal
He is very excited to be part of the Acts House of Education family and is looking forward to continue the excellent work of his predecessor.
Acts House of Education welcomed their new principal, Riaan van der Merwe after their outgoing principal of the past five years, Anny Breedt, relocated to KwaZulu-Natal.
According to Van der Merwe, he is very excited to be part of the Acts House of Education family and is looking forward to continue the excellent work his predecessor has done to provide quality Christ-centred education in Centurion and Midrand.
Van der Merwe quickly realised after joining the school at the end of 2020, why this school is growing so quickly.
“Both parents and learners are excited to be part of the mission of the school to equip children to become life-long learners who are resourceful and able to confidently function in a global environment,” he said.
Acts House of Education quickly adapted in 2020 to a fast-changing educational environment due to the Covid-19 pandemic, according to Van der Merwe.
“During the lockdown period, the school took steps to ensure that the interruption of the education of children was minimised. The school achieved 100% completion of the curriculum through online learning platforms that provided engaging and challenging learning experiences to students.”
Van der Merwe said the school was ready to use these digital platforms again for 2021 if required.
“I am very excited to be part of a school that is committed to fostering the values of resilience, perseverance, grit, empathy, and the ability to communicate effectively. These skills will undoubtedly help students to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally,” he said.
