Sing a New Song

Psalm 96 1-3, ESV
"Oh sing to the LORD a new song;
  sing to the LORD, all the earth!
Sing to the LORD, bless his name;
  tell of his salvation from day to day.
Declare his glory among the nations,
  his marvellous works among all the peoples!"

‘Sons of Korah’ are a musical group that sing the Psalms. My favourite is Psalm 96, and as I go for a walk, with my earphones, the world becomes a much simpler place.

Psalm 96 - Sons of Korah

I pray we enjoy the holiday season. More importantly, I pray that we can find contentment in the love that He has for us. No matter what season we find our life in, declare His glory.

Brendan van Oostveen, Principal

Tēnā koutou, kia ora tātou, Tēnā koutou katoa. 

Greetings from LAC House in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. As we head down the final stretch of 2019 we are very grateful to our awesome God Creator for His blessings and answered prayers throughout this past year.

While our staff have kept busy with boarding demands and expectations, this has also provided immeasurable opportunities of personal growth and development in Jesus Christ. LAC House wish to thank you for your positive influence and presence in the lives of our 2019 boarders.

We would also like to thank Mr Roy Henry for his dedicated service and commitment to LAC Boarding for the past 18 years. We will miss you. 

Replacing good volunteer staff each year can be a challenge, but with God all things are possible.

We are pleased to welcome new Boarding Staff – Senior Boys’ Dean, Mr Jefferson Souza, and wonderful volunteers from Brazil, USA and New Zealand.

With our House motto – Kia Puāwai Tātou – The Lord’s plans, Jeremiah 29:11, it is our prayer that we continue to grow lives according to His will.

Maria Henry, Boarding Director
