Welcome from the Principal's Office
It's all about the children. It always has been. First, we guide them in the way of Jesus to help expand His Kingdom. Secondly, to help them become adults who:
* Will take personal responsibility for their actions and choices.
* Will become contributing members of society.
* Will serve others freely.
My goal is to create an environment free of unnecessary stress, bullying, and unwanted peer pressure. Furthermore, we aim to work together in love and peace, creating good memories for the children.
My personal journey includes over twenty years in education and 13 years in the business world. It’s had its challenges—just like everyone’s life! But I know God led me to Baken to fulfill His purpose in my own small way.
I am eternally grateful for every child, colleague, and parent who chooses to walk this path with us. Every day is a joy and a blessing!
Kind regards
M. Gericke, Hoof
