ACG 创始人奖学金 2024：庆祝Rasleen的卓越与抱负

每年，ACG 创始人奖学金都会表彰一位展现卓越学术能力、领导才能以及有远大抱负的杰出学生。2024 年的获奖者是ACG 斯爱伦的优秀毕业生 Rasleen Singh，她对学习的执着追求以及对科学进步的热情，充分展现了她卓越的才华。

我们为 ACG 斯爱伦毕业生Rasleen Singh 及其卓越成就感到无比自豪。Rasleen 已收到来自全球七所知名大学的录取通知，其中包含剑桥大学，她是新西兰仅有的七名获得剑桥大学录取的学生之一。我们由衷赞赏 Rasleen 的辛勤努力和坚定意志，并期待她未来的学术旅程。

充满奉献与成就的旅程

Rasleen Singh 出生于新加坡，来自马来西亚，2015 年随家人移居新西兰，当时年仅 8 岁，并在 ACG 斯爱伦学校度过了 9 年的求学时光。回忆起在高级颁奖典礼上被宣布获得奖学金的那一刻，她依然难掩激动之情。

“从完成面试到颁奖典礼期间，我的心情一直十分紧张。当我的名字在大厅中响起的那一刻，一股难以言喻的喜悦涌上心头。我站在舞台上，迎来了人生中第一次全场起立鼓掌的时刻，台下是家长、同学和老师。这一切让我感到无比振奋，这是多年来对学术追求和努力的最好见证。”

卓越的学术和领导才能，诚信与激励他人的热情

Rasleen 的学术卓越毋庸置疑。她在 2016 年至 2024 年间多次被评为“顶尖学者”（Top Scholar）, 并积极参与 新西兰化学奥林匹克竞赛训练营、国际化学测验（International Chemistry Quiz）、ICAS 考试，以及奥克兰大学工程科学竞赛。

在高年级颁奖典礼（Senior Prizegiving）上，她荣获了最高学术荣誉——College Dux，在 A-Level 生物、化学、物理 课程中取得第一名，并在 A-Level 英语语言 课程中排名第三。此外，她还获得了 最佳全能表现奖（Best All-Round Performance Award）。

在学术之外，Rasleen 的领导角色锻炼了她的诚信品格，也激励着他人。她完成了 爱丁堡公爵银奖（Duke of Edinburgh Silver Award），同时也是空手道 三段黑带（3rd Dan Black Belt），并担任其空手道道场的学生领袖，在其中展现出她的纪律性与对指导他人的热情。

在 ACG Strathallan 的珍贵回忆

回顾她在 ACG Strathallan 的时光，Rasleen 认为 13 年级（Year 13） 是她最难忘的一年。

“一切都恰到好处地融合在一起—我的奉献与坚持得到了回报，我被选为 House 领袖、曲棍球队队长，同时也是空手道道场的学生领袖。我不仅平衡了学业，取得优异成绩，还获得了 College Dux 奖和最佳全能奖。我在 Tournament Week、爵士乐队旅行、高年级舞会（Senior Ball，且被加冕为‘舞会女王’）以及毕业晚宴（Graduation Dinner）中都度过了难忘的时光。”

成功的经验分享

在 ACG斯爱伦的学习生涯中，Rasleen 培养了自豪感、诚信、尊重、同理心和责任感等宝贵的价值观。她建议学弟学妹们要聪明学习、寻找导师指导，并积极参与各种活动。

“主动辅导低年级学生—教学的过程反而能让你自己学得更好。积极参与课外活动，比如空手道，它帮助我培养了纪律性，并让我在压力下保持冷静。此外，也要留出时间培养兴趣爱好——艺术带给我的创造力，丰富了我的 STEM 课程学习，也让我的求学生涯更加充实。”

Celebrating Excellence and Ambition

Each year, the ACG Founders Scholarship recognises an exceptional student who exemplifies academic excellence, leadership, and a bold vision for the future. The 2024 recipient, Rasleen Singh, an outstanding graduate of ACG Strathallan, embodies these qualities, demonstrating a remarkable commitment to learning and a passion for scientific advancement.

We are proud to celebrate Rasleen Singh and her outstanding accomplishments. Rasleen has received offers from seven prestigious universities worldwide, including the University of Cambridge. This makes her one of only 7 New Zealand students offered a place at Cambridge. We are extremely proud of Rasleen's hard work and determination and can’t wait to see where her academic journey takes her.

A Journey of Dedication and Achievement

Originally from Malaysia and born in Singapore, Rasleen Singh moved to New Zealand in 2015 at the age of eight and spent over nine years at ACG Strathallan. Reflecting on the moment she was announced as the scholarship recipient during the Senior Prizegiving, she recalls a mix of surprise and elation.

“The suspense from the time I completed my interview to prizegiving day was super tense, and I was astonished to be announced as the recipient of this scholarship. The moment my name echoed through the hall; a surge of elation washed over me. Standing on that stage and receiving my first-ever standing ovation from an audience of parents, students, and staff was an overwhelmingly positive experience. It was a culmination of years of dedication to academic pursuit.”

Academic Excellence, Leadership, Integrity, and a Passion for Inspiring Others

Rasleen’s academic excellence is evident through her recognition as Top Scholar multiple times from 2016 to 2024 and her participation in competitions such as the New Zealand Chemistry Olympiad, the International Chemistry Quiz, ICAS, and the University of Auckland Engineering Science Competition. She was honoured as College Dux at the Senior Prizegiving, securing top ranks in A-Level Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and English Language, along with the Best All-Round Performance Award. Beyond academics, Rasleen’s leadership roles have strengthened her integrity and inspired others. She completed the Duke of Edinburgh Silver Award and serves as a 3rd Dan Black Belt and student leader in her karate dojo, where she applies her discipline and passion for mentorship.

Cherished Memories at ACG Strathallan

Reflecting on her time at ACG Strathallan, Rasleen highlights her Year 13 experience as a standout moment.

“Everything blended so well – my dedication and perseverance paid off when I was chosen as Head of House, hockey captain, and student leader of my karate dojo. I balanced my studies, secured excellent grades, and received the College Dux Award and Best All-Rounder Award. I also had lots of fun at Tournament Week, my Jazz Band trip, Senior Ball (where I was crowned Queen of the Ball), and Graduation Dinner.”

Lessons for Success

Having cultivated invaluable values of pride, integrity, respect, empathy, and compassion, Rasleen advises fellow students to work smart, seek mentorship, and engage in diverse activities.

“Offer to tutor younger students – you end up learning better when you teach. Stay involved in extracurriculars. Karate, for example, helped me develop discipline and composure under pressure. Lastly, make time for hobbies – the creativity I explored through the Arts complemented the rigours of my STEM subjects and enriched my school experience.”
