Staffing changes

The end of term always brings about changes to Amano; teachers come and go as God calls them to serve him in different places around the world or within Zambia itself. Occasionally even students move as family situations change. The last holiday was no different. Amano lost a great servant – Miss Lukundo Siwale left us after 7 years of being here. It was an emotional time for all of us as we lost a dear friend, special teacher and colleague. Lukundo invested so much of her time and effort into the life of the school and the lives of the students with her dedication to history, business studies, drama and English Literature particularly.

It has been a pleasure to work alongside her and see her enthusiasm for her subjects rub off onto the students. She will be missed BUT God is good and faithful. Despite our fears of not having anyone to replace her, God found for us two people to take her place.
We welcome Mrs Angie Dodds, who is no stranger to Amano having visited for short periods before, to teach English Literature. We also welcome Mrs Mulemba, who is an experienced teacher of history in local schools. We pray that both of them will enjoy their time here and our students will learn much from them.

As well as some new teachers, we also welcome back a group of Amano pioneers. The McCaffrey family have re-joined Amano after a 7 year absence. Brian will be overseeing the building site maintenance, Sandra return to nursing duties and the 4 children join our school and meet up with a few old friends. It’s great to have them on campus once again and we pray God will use them mightily for his glory whilst they are here.
