Students from across Africa gather for one powerful week of competition, growth and purpose.
Bring your school. Bring your talent. Bring your best.
It’s a week that lasts a lifetime.
ABOUT AASC
All Africa Student Convention (AASC) is an annual gathering of high school learners from AEE-associated schools across the continent. For one week, students represent their schools in a wide range of academic, cultural, artistic and sporting events, developing excellence, confidence and conviction.
AASC is more than competition.
It is a platform where faith and talent meet.
Where students grow in character while sharpening their skills.
Where schools unite in shared purpose.
EVENING RALLIES
Throughout the week, the convention gathers for powerful Evening Rallies with transformational speakers and vibrant praise and worship. These moments unite students and schools in faith and purpose, offering a steady centre during preparation and competition, and reminding every participant that their gifts and efforts are offered to God.
