Rotorua Seventh-Day Adventist School 'city's best kept secret'

Rotorua Daily Post

​
"We want everyone to know we're here and we have lots to offer," Strickland said.
"I'd encourage people to come in and have a look. Once they get into the school they can see it's a beautiful school."
Strickland said, with a maximum of 45 students, the school promoted a whanau environment.
"No child gets left behind. Relationships are important and the learning opportunities. We give as many things a go as possible."

I like that the teachers make sure you have a relationship with God by reminding us that we matter. I liked the first time I played in the basketball team.
Everyone was encouraging.
