Although founded on a Christian ethos and culture of prayer, Wellspring welcomes all students willing to respect the school\u2019s values and code of conduct.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Representing the Minister of Education, Eng. Pascal Gatabazi, a Chief Technical Advisor at the Ministry, congratulated the graduates and encouraged them to embrace life beyond the classroom with resilience and confidence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCompleting secondary education is a remarkable achievement. I wish you all success as you strive to become professionals and pursue your dreams,\u201d he said. \u201cFace the future with courage, and trust in your own potential.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also addressing the graduates was Pastor Peter Nkunzingoma, Senior Pastor of Christian Life Assembly, who reminded students to safeguard their well-being and keep their faith central to their ambitions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhenever you seek success or strength in life, turn to God and ask for His guidance and presence in all you do,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Established in 2007 by Christian Life Assembly, Wellspring Academy began with just 106 students. Today, it is recognised among Rwanda\u2019s top international schools, offering the Cambridge curriculum. The school aims to deliver high-quality education while nurturing ethical, visionary leaders who will contribute to Rwanda\u2019s progress and promote its values around the world.<\/p>\n<figure
