At OAK, we believe that true growth comes from real-life experiences that challenge, inspire, and empower students. Our “Growing by Experience” approach encourages students to bring their education to life—helping them realize their full potential, develop essential life skills, and become the best versions of themselves.

The OAK Semper Altius Scholarship competition provided a platform for students to demonstrate their commitment to the ideals of integral formation, excelling in spiritual, human, intellectual, and apostolic areas.

This year, the competition challenged participants to develop projects that not only showcased creativity but also focused on meaningful, impactful solutions that align with our school’s core values.

How can students bring their education to life through service and creativity?

The competition consisted of two main blocks, with each participant integrating one theme from each:

Block 1: Academic-Social
This block covered topics such as motivating study habits, promoting language learning, and fostering social activities.

Block 2: Spiritual-Apostolic
Here, themes included organizing liturgical campaigns, supporting religious groups, and creating community service projects aimed at helping the less fortunate.

As we celebrate the outstanding creativity and dedication of all the participants, we are reminded that true growth comes from experience.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the winners of the OAK Semper Altius Scholarship competition. These students have shown remarkable commitment, creativity, and innovation in addressing both academic-social and spiritual-apostolic themes.

Their projects reflect their exceptional dedication to the ideals of integral formation, excelling in all areas: spiritual, human, intellectual, and apostolic.

A special thank you goes to the families who supported these young students throughout their journey.
