Looking back at my years in high school, I feel immense gratitude for the education and upbringing I received. Our school, The Bible Academy, was not just a place of learning it was a home that shaped us into well-rounded individuals. In those days, our school was prestigious, and rightfully so. The values and lessons I absorbed within its walls have played a significant role in making me who I am today .Education at our school went far beyond textbooks. We were encouraged to grow as whole persons through a wide range of extracurricular activities such as sports clubs, recreation, Bible study, photography, pastry making, and scouting, to name a few. These experiences enriched our minds and spirits, teaching us teamwork, creativity, discipline, and compassion.

One of the fondest memories I hold is of the warm welcome we received as new students. Each of us was guided by seniors who acted as mother figures, easing our transition into boarding life. They patiently walked us through the rules and regulations, ensuring that we felt at home from the very beginning. This sense of family and mentorship left a lasting impression on me. Although I do not consider myself a regular churchgoer, the moral education I received during those formative years has been a cornerstone of my life. It taught me humility, kindness, and integrity values that continue to guide me today. It is heartwarming to see that many of my schoolmates share these same qualities and to hear the countless success stories that have emerged from our alumni community

Oh, how I miss my school The guidance, and the sense of purpose it instilled in us. I will always cherish those years and remain grateful for the profound impact they have had on my life.
