“I went on to study Maths and Sport Science and then a Dip Ed. I taught at Quinns Baptist for 10 years and am now at Alkimos Baptist. I have been in the roles of Year Coordinator and Head of Department and now oversee the Secondary part of our school and am Acting Principal when needed.”
“Becoming a partner in an audit firm at the age of 26 – the leadership training I received through KCC (cadets, student leaders etc) both allowed me to get this position and has helped me to excel.”
“Sending me to Kingsway was one of the best things my parents could have ever done for me. I was surrounded by people who I could relate to in faith and join on my spiritual journey. I learned so many valuable life lessons through attending Kingsway and I enjoyed every second of it!”
