SCHOOL LOGO & SCHOOL VERSES
Blessed is the man ... his delight is in the law of the Lord,and on his law he meditates day and night.He is like a tree planted by streams of water,that yields its fruit in its season,and its leaf does not wither.In all that he does, he prospers.Psalm 1: 2-3
Blessed is the man ... his delight is in the law of the Lord,and on his law he meditates dayand night.He is like a tree planted by streamsof water,that yields its fruit in its season,and its leaf does not wither.In all that he does, he prospers.Psalm 1: 2-3
Blessings from God for those who grow in wisdom and stature, in favor with God and men are as follows:
Stability: When a tree is planted by streams of water, it keeps growing even in dry and trying seasons. It neither relies on rain nor moisture from the outside. The streams of water represent the Word of God. When we have the roots of our heart and soul into God's Word, it gives us peace and courage in times of adversity and upheaval. Unshakable, the tree is an evergreen! Character: The tree bears fruit in season. The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23a). Rooted by streams of water, the tree takes in water and tastes the sweetness of the scripture. Over time, it changes our life. Delight: When we meditate on the law of the Lord day and night, it engages our mind, inclines our heart, and moves us through duty toward joy. Psalm 1:2-3 illustrate the lifestyle and destiny of a blessed man.
Holistic Education
Education at CAPCL can be elaborated with 4Hs. They are Heart, Habits, Head, and Hands.
Heart and Habits – Building a solid foundation
- As illustrated by the school logo, which is a tree rooted in streams of water, our teaching and learning are grounded in “heart-work”. It is written that “keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life” (Proverbs 4:23).
- Grateful heart
- Willing heart
- CAPCL aims to support learners in developing healthy and godly habits.
- 7 moral habits: empathy, conscience, self-control, respect, kindness, appreciation, and fairness.
Head and Hands – Becoming faithful and fruitful
- Learners have opportunities to apply what they learn (Head – critical and creative thinking skills) into services (Hands – communication and collaboration) to one another within the school community and in our neighbourhood.
- As mighty learners and citizens, CAPCL learners are servant leaders and community leaders.
