excitement in the family

We are very excited that we have a new member of the family. Isabelle Audrey Slennett has arrived in the last week!

Congratulations Sam and Amy! We can't wait to meet her :-)

Our new Director!

Bingham's school board has been prayerfully considering who to appoint as our permanent Director. During the summer the board made the decision to appoint Brad Adams as Bingham Academy's new Director. Brad has served at Bingham for six years and has an excellent understanding of the strengths and challenges the school faces. Please join with us in thanking God for such a strong appointment, and asking the Lord to guide Brad as he takes the school forward.

If you want to put a face to the name, Brad and his wife Krisha appear at the end of this short SIM-Australia video.

we have new teachers!!

We're starting teacher orientation again, with the new school year starting in only a couple of weeks. We have a great team of teachers here ready and we are excited for what this year will look like.

We've been having all sorts of fun despite the rain, and were blessed to have Sarah's Uncle visit last week so we'll share some of our fun times soon. Until we get the chance please think of us and be praying for this time - we want the team to start the new year well.
