On Friday mornings before school, the staff gather to pray and sing Christian songs and hymns together. We have many musically talented staff who rotate to lead us in this. This morning, however, we were blessed to be led by some of our Year 11 music students. Think about this for a minute – we have a school where believing young people can join our teachers in Christian worship.
And while during the school years there remains an authority of the teacher in the classroom, Biblically, our Christian students are our young brothers and sisters in Christ and co-heirs in eternity with the Father. This is borne out in several staff who were once our Shire students but are now work colleagues and friends (and similar for many of our parents). What a blessing it is to be part of an organisation founded under Christ and, in partnership with parents, to develop and grow young people to the glory of God.
There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. [Gal 3:28]
