ESC is a wonderful opportunity for students to meet in a safe environment with other young people who have a shared experience with ACE.&nbsp;</span></p><p style="font-size:12px;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><br></span></p><p style="font-size:12px;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:16px;"></span></p><p style="font-size:12px;text-align:left;"><span style="color:inherit;font-size:16px;font-weight:700;">An Opportunity to&nbsp;Share Talents&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size:16px;"><br></span></p><div style="font-size:12px;"><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:11pt;">ESC is a big competition that covers the <span style="font-weight:500;">arts, sports, music,&nbsp;drama and academics</span>. &nbsp;</span></p></div><p style="font-size:12px;text-align:left;"><span style="color:inherit;"></span></p><div style="font-size:12px;"><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:11pt;">The friendly competition gives students a chance to showcase their talents and get constructive feedback from judges who are experienced in the various fields.&nbsp;</span></p><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><br></span></p><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:16px;"></span></p><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:inherit;font-size:16px;font-weight:700;">Discovering&nbsp;New Interests&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size:16px;"><br></span></p></div><p style="font-size:12px;text-align:left;"><span style="color:inherit;"><span style="font-size:11pt;">We like to encourage students to branch out and enter a category that&nbsp;they've&nbsp;never tried before. ESC is a great opportunity for students to try out different skills and maybe even discover that they have gifts in an area that they&nbsp;wouldn't&nbsp;necessarily have tried otherwise.&nbsp;Many past attendees have nurtured amazing talents in areas such as public speaking, art, and sports,&nbsp;which they discovered when they took part in those events at ESC!&nbsp;</span></span><span style="font-size:11pt;"><br></span></p><p style="font-size:12px;text-align:left;"><span style="color:inherit;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><br></span></span></p><p style="font-size:12px;text-align:left;"><span style="color:inherit;font-size:16px;font-weight:700;">Christian Encouragement</span></p><p style="font-size:12px;text-align:left;"><span style="color:inherit;"><span style="font-size:11pt;">Along with the opportunities to share and discover, ESC also is a place for students to receive encouragement in their faith. The main goal of the event is to allow students to embrace and express the gifts that God has given them. Through healthy competition, worship, fellowship and special guest speakers, this event aims to highlight the lifetime benefits of Godly character and give students a safe platform to grow into the people they were created to be.&nbsp;</span></span><span style="font-size:11pt;"><br></span></p><p style="font-size:12px;text-align:left;"><span style="color:inherit;"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><br></span></span></p><p style="font-size:12px;text-align:left;"><span style="color:inherit;font-weight:700;font-size:16px;">Long Term Benefits</span></p><span style="color:inherit;"><div style="font-size:12px;"><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:11pt;">Most ACE graduates will tell you that ESC was a game changer for them. As well as giving students a reason to practise and hone their natural skills, it also gives them a chance to branch out and&nbsp;discover new things. These opportunities give students valuable experience,&nbsp;which they will be able to use in future careers and higher education.&nbsp;</span></p></div><div style="font-size:12px;"><p></p><div style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:inherit;">&nbsp;</span></div><p></p></div></span><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:inherit;">Most of all,&nbsp;ESC is a space for students to come together and form lasting friendships in a Christian environment. </span></p><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:inherit;"><br></span></p><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-weight:700;font-size:16px;"><span style="color:inherit;">ESC 2021</span></span></p><div style="font-size:12px;"><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:11pt;">ESC is online this year, but&nbsp;it's&nbsp;still a great opportunity for students.
