August Update: Sarah’s Visit

Recently Sarah Jackson visited Ark Quest for the 5th time. Sarah, who is from the UK, has a background in teaching and has been a supporter of Ark Quest School for a number of years.  She writes…

Even though the school closed for the holidays, shortly after I arrived, it was a joy to spend time with teachers as they ran holiday classes for the Year 8 Exam candidates. It is clear that the teachers are committed to the learning and future of their students. There is a strong sense of community and unity between staff and students. Children enjoy being at the school and value the opportunities that are provided.

As there is a new government requirement for technology in schools, I helped set up the new computer lab in the library, and train teachers in the use of programmes. This created great excitement for both students and teachers.

The Ark Quest journey has not been without its challenges, but God has proved his faithfulness time and time again to this community. I truly believe God continues to bless this school because of the good stewardship of resources, and the integrity that is demonstrated throughout.

Calvine’s vision, sacrifice and forward planning never ceases to amaze me! The dairy is growing strong and has multiplied since last time I was here. It is full to bursting and awaiting the planned extension in November.

* Chris and Emily Johnston will be visiting in November and are raising funds to extend the dairy shed. Click here to find out more.
