Samuel Christian School

Samuel Christian School is a ministry of YWAM-Mali that opened its doors October 14, 1996 with 3 primary school classes. Today, the school has an enrolment of 410 students from kindergarten through middle school.


School Objectives:

Children need more than just an education; they must learn the values that will permit them to face the challenges of the society: justice, righteousness, self-sacrifice, perseverance.

The school wants to respond to this challenge by an education founded upon Biblical values by proposing:

  1. A school that follows the State's program while incorporating a Biblical perspective.
  2. A school for all where the students, boys or girls, from Christian or Muslim families are taught.
  3. A school to serve the nation, which trains men and women who refuse corruption and work for righteousness and justice and who seek the welfare of their country.

STRATEGIES:

  1. Quality education following the national program, but enriched by a Christian perspective conforming to the Bible as the unique and ultimate reference.
  2. Commitment of quality personnel having a genuine Christian testimony and high moral values.
  3. A pedagogy oriented towards Christian values, i.e. love and respect, excellence in performance, a sense of responsibility, a wise stewardship of the body as the temple of God:
  4. Classes having small enrolments: a maximum of 40 students by class.
  5. An agreeable environment to work and live.

Ongoing Construction:

1. Construction of a multi-use auditorium having a 600 place capacity.
2. Construction of a pre-school/ kindergarten on a site close to Samuel Christian School.

Our present challenges:

1. Human resources: the lack of committed full-time Christian teachers. We are also in need of a librarian and a nurse.

2. Material resources:

  • Upgrading of all of our computer equipment
  • For the Pre-K and Kindergarten, new teaching games and outdoor play equipment (swings, slides, etc.)
  • Diverse teaching materials
