get the full UWCSEA experience Parents’ Action for Community and Education (PACE) is a volunteer parent-led organisation that falls under the Service umbrella of the College. PACE serves the UWCSEA community, across both campuses, via activities and events that provide both a social network and the opportunity to contribute.
It was all smiles on Friday, 10 May 2019, as 18 men and women from HCA Hospice Care were taken on a customised, wheelchair-friendly sustainability tour of Dover Campus. The special event was the long-awaited brainchild of parent volunteer group, the Parents’ Action for Community and Education (PACE). The volunteers organised a wonderful array of activities and experiences for the visitors, which began the moment they stepped onto campus. Throughout the morning, guests were given the full UWCSEA experience—from being serenaded by our Junior School student-singers and soloists, to traveling to far-away places at the exciting IDEAS Hub green screen room, to getting their creative juices flowing with a fun string-art activity. The tour also took them around the campus, where they learnt about UWCSEA’s sustainability mission and exchanged stories with our students. Looking across the smiling faces on the day, the joy from all present was palpable. And for good reason: it was a big occasion for both PACE and HCA—two groups who have worked closely together for a decade.
