Plans for the Land |
If you’ve followed these blogs for a while, or our
prayer letters, or heard us talk, you’ll know that one of the biggest
frustrations KISC has faced has been lack of space.
We have been praying for 5 years for more space. The
facilities we have are great, especially in terms of classrooms, but we’ve
constantly lacked play space. We’ve been inventive; the roof of our main
teaching building is used as a small sports pitch, squashed 4-a-side football
size. We’ve hired other venues; especially for special events or for sports
teams training. But ultimately we are squashed. Especially when you consider in
August we will top 200 students for the first time in our history.
So it was with great delight that a couple of weeks ago we
were able to sign a deal to rent a piece of vacant land right next to the KISC
site. This land has been vacant for a while, but for various reasons we have
only been able to even discuss renting it in the last few months. The things
that have happened to enable this to come about showed this was a real answer
to prayer and the students and staff are all very excited.
Digger gets to work |
At the end of last week the diggers moved in to start to
clear the remains of the buildings that once stood on the site and level the
land. Hopefully by the Autumn it will be a basketball court, a small
field/football pitch and parking space that will keep the existing campus clear
of bikes.
