More about RVA- the school we'll be serving at

RVA is a Christian boarding school located in central Kenya. The academy, a branch of Africa Inland Mission International, exists to provide a quality education in a nurturing environment for the children of missionaries serving in Africa. 

With over 100 years of rich history, RVA has played an instrumental role in the lives of countless MKs (missionary kids). The current student body of about 490 includes more than 20 different nationalities. 


The families these students represent serve with 80 mission organizations in over 20 African countries!!


Here are some pictures of the campus from my recent visit there.
Here are some of the high school...
This is the biology lab (where Michael may be teaching?)

This is the metal tree where the students hang their mugs.


At 10am everyday, the whole student body gets to come outside, grab their mug off the tree and enjoy their chai break.

And here's some of "Titchie," the elementary school...
Don't you love all the different flags? :)


Michael's Aunt Carolyn has so much fun in her first grade classroom!



The fun outer walls where evidently the kids park their bikes.
