Staff Retreat

Staff retreat was a real blessing in many ways. It was a blessing to be able to go because the committee subsidised families this year and provided child care for all ages. It was a blessing to be able to socialise and fellowship with the staff and play rugby. It was also challenging and encouraging and i think Mark Anderson did a great job with his messages. I particularly liked the way he had researched the school and tied what he was saying into making us evaluate what we do.
It was good too to re-evaluate our passion for being here and feel God's confirmation in choices we have made.
It was also good to be reminded that my foremost passion right now, for me, is my kids. Already I am facing Rose beginning school and all that entails in terms of my time with her and other influences that she will be open to. I do not have long to make good on what God has entrusted to me in my kids.
