At its core, TravelSCHOOL is our premier Discipleship and Leadership program. Grade 10 learners embark on a 6-week international travel journey where they serve alongside missionaries, live simply and grow spiritually. Investment in the program; TravelSCHOOL enables GLA  to not only identify future Christian leaders, but also to intentionally disciple and shape them. Some core values we experienced on this year’s TravelSCHOOL.

1. Faith: A deep commitment to spiritual beliefs and the mission of sharing those beliefs with others.
