Covid-19 – March 2020 RVA went online with students returning to campus in January 2021. We are now at the end of term and have been thankful that the protocols in place have worked. We have kept Covid cases to a minimum with none among our boarding students. We are so thankful to the Lord!Continue reading “Top Ten Things on Our Hearts and Minds”

Are we getting through?
On Cassidy and Todd’s recent trip back to Canada they had several opportunities to visit places that they normally do not get a chance to visit. One place was Prairie Bible College and they were fortunate to bump into a staff member who was the Dean of Men at the college when Todd was thereContinue reading “Are we getting through?”
Banquet 2013 – Titanic
Well, we have tackled probably the single biggest event in the life of an RVA student. The junior class puts on a banquet for the seniors to show their appreciation and to honour the seniors for making it this far. It is not just any banquet though. There is a building that we use thatContinue reading “Banquet 2013 – Titanic”
Multicultural Day and One World Run 2012
Multicultural day is a much anticipated event here at RVA. The theme this year was “GO“. After a very good Spiritual Emphasis Week in which the students were challenged about taking the Gospel to all peoples we thought it would be fitting to make the theme a simple reminder that we are called to go. Continue reading “Multicultural Day and One World Run 2012”
Meet the new tennis coach
Well, this may sound interesting but really it is me. I guess I am thinking that I would expand my repertoire of sports coached to include tennis. The only problem is that besides teaching the basic skills in P.E. I have to admit that there is probably a lot more to the sport that IContinue reading “Meet the new tennis coach”

Many of those students make their way here to reunite with classmates and reminisce about the days they wereContinue reading “Alumni Weekend”

Ten years at RVA. Can it really be? Just the other day we were honoured and thanked by the school and the school board during a chapel service for serving here for ten years. The chairman of the board thanked and commended us for our ten years of service to RVA and the Kijabe community. Continue reading “Milestone”
Volleyball season
Wow, another full and busy term of volleyball. The challenge is to bring ten guys together to get them working together in two short weeks to be ready to play in our international school league. I was so thankful for such a great group of players who worked really hard to be able to playContinue reading “Volleyball season”
Senior re-entry weekend
There is a unique aspect of working here at RVA. We experience a high number of transitions and changes in our environments that it is easy to forget just how these things affect us. Transition never occurs in a vacuum. It involves people at every turn and junction of our lives. Transitioning well means learning howContinue reading “Senior re-entry weekend”
Lightning strikes twice?
There is probably never a day that goes by that is not full of some sort of crazy event. Just the other day it was an intense lightning storm that had a bolt of lightning strike right in the middle of our campus. Thankfully no one was hurt but it certainly left people scurrying forContinue reading “Lightning strikes twice?”
