Letter from the Boarding Master...

Welcome to Blue Hills Boarding School!

As the boarding master, I am proud to share with you the many ways in which we care for our students as boarders. At Blue Hills, our priority is to provide a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment for all of our boarding students.

Food is an essential part of a student's well-being, and we take it very seriously. Our kitchen staff works hard to provide nutritious and delicious meals that cater to a variety of dietary needs and preferences. We offer three balanced meals per day, with plenty of options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Snacks are also available throughout the day to help keep students fueled and focused.

Security is a top concern for all boarding schools, and Blue Hills is no exception. Our campus is fully secure, with 24-hour surveillance and regular security checks. All boarding students are required to wear identification tags at all times, and we have strict policies in place to ensure the safety and wellbeing of everyone on campus.

In addition to food and security, we also place a strong emphasis on spiritual growth and social well-being. On Saturdays, we hold church services as part of our commitment to the Seventh Day Adventist faith. These services provide a time for students to come together and reflect on their faith, and are an important part of our boarding school community.

Beyond church services, we also offer a variety of social and recreational activities for our boarding students. From sports and games to art and music, there is something for everyone. We believe that a healthy balance of academics, social activities, and recreation is key to a student's overall wellbeing, and we work hard to provide opportunities for all of our boarding students to thrive.

At Blue Hills Boarding School, our mission is to provide a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment for all of our students. From food and security to spiritual growth and social well-being, we are committed to providing the best possible experience for every student who comes through our doors. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We are always here to help.

Sincerely,

Mr. T Ncube

Letter from the School Chaplain ...

As the Chaplain of Blue Hills Boarding School, I am thrilled to have the opportunity to share with you our commitment to the spiritual well-being of our boarding students. At Blue Hills, we believe that spiritual growth is a critical part of a student's overall development, and we are proud to be affiliated with the Seventh Day Adventist Church.

As Seventh Day Adventists, we believe in the importance of accepting Jesus as our Savior and living according to Christian values. Our boarding students are encouraged to deepen their faith through regular worship services, Bible studies, and prayer. We believe that a strong spiritual foundation can provide a source of strength and guidance throughout a student's life.

One of the ways we support our boarding students in their spiritual growth is through prayer. At Blue Hills, we encourage students to pray individually and collectively, and we offer regular opportunities for students to come together and pray. Whether it is through morning devotions, chapel services, or small group Bible studies, we believe that prayer is an essential part of a student's spiritual journey.

In addition to our spiritual programming, we also provide opportunities for students to serve others and put their faith into action. Whether it is through local service projects, mission trips, or simply volunteering in their communities, we believe that serving others is a critical part of living a life of faith.

At Blue Hills Boarding School, our goal is to provide a supportive and nurturing environment where students can grow in their faith and deepen their relationship with Jesus. Whether you are already a Seventh Day Adventist or simply exploring your faith, we welcome you to join us on this journey. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about our spiritual programs, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We would be honored to hear from you!

Sincerely,

Mr. V Sibisi
