    Our Constitution lays out the basis for the Association for Christian Education in the belief that the Bible is the infallible Word of God and we are to accept it as our guide and final authority in all matters pertaining to faith and life.

    This important document was reviewed by a Board-appointed task group and approved by ACE members at the 2019 General Meeting, ensuring that it remains relevant and up to date.

    Constitution

    Background #

    1. God, by His wise Covenant arrangements, has appointed the parents to be responsible for the training of the child. Consequently, we believe that it is our duty and privilege as Christian parents to provide Christian education for our children and as this can be best accomplished by concerted action, such as the establishing of Christian parent-controlled schools, we do hereby make and adopt the following Constitution.
    2. On 27 May 1964, at an Annual General Meeting, the Association was formed and a constitution was adopted (the Original Constitution). Pursuant to that Original Constitution, the Association has established and continuously operated since that date the Rehoboth Christian School (now Rehoboth Christian College).
    3. The five foundation members of the Board as recorded in the Original Constitution were:
      1. Annig Hetebrij of 22 Marquis Street, Bentley
      2. Jakob Swarts of 187 Riverton Street, Wilson
      3. Hendrik Carl Gotthilf Samuel Siegismund Roelofs of 21 Mayfair Street, West Perth
      4. Hendrik van Dijken of 81 Armadale Road, Rivervale
      5. Sijbe Knol of 14 Randall Street, Dianella.
    4. The Original Constitution has been amended from time to time by the Association, with the most recent amendments occurring in 2015.
    5. In 2013 and 2014, the Board reviewed the Constitution (Amended 1989) and received advice that the Constitution (Amended 1989) was not compliant with the basic requirement for constitutions that are required at law under the Associations Incorporation Act 1987 (WA). This Constitution was adopted at an Annual General Meeting of the Association held 30 March 2015.
    6. In 2018 and 2019, the Board reviewed the Constitution (Amended 2015) and received advice that the Constitution (Amended 2015) was not compliant with the basic requirement for constitutions that are required at law under the Associations Incorporation Act 2015 (WA).
    7. The Board has elected to prepare this Constitution based largely on the model rules as set out in Schedule 2 of the Associations Incorporation Regulations 2016, to ensure compliance with the Schedule 1 Requirements of the Associations Incorporation Act 2015 (WA).
    8. This Constitution preserves the majority of the terms of the Constitution (Amended 2015) and Constitution (Amended 1989) and incorporates those terms into the framework of the Schedule 1 Requirements.
    9. It is intended that the Constitution (Amended 2015) will be amended in accordance with its terms by replacing the Constitution (Amended 2015) with this Constitution.
