2023 April – Beth Glasby, Volunteer Teacher
Kompiam International School ended the year 2022 unsure if they would have enough teachers for this year. However, God has always provided whenever we needed it. And so in faith, the school “prepared the field for rain,” so to speak. And that blessing has come in the form of a young teacher, Beth Glasby. Coming to us from Melbourne, Australia, Beth has been teaching and working at the school since the beginning of the school year. Taking on the Upper Primary and Secondary classes, Miss Glasby has truly helped to lighten the load of the school staff. And because all good things must someday come to an end, Beth must now leave us. Yet, we are immensely grateful for the time and effort she has given the school. And as always, we wait on God to provide for the future, whether from home or afar.

2022 December – End of year update
This year has been a massive year for Kompiam International School. Not only has the school held its’ second graduation ceremony, but it has also been Mrs. Karina Mills’ last year as Principal of KIS. Kompiam International School is beaming with pride as yet another three Secondary students have finished their Year 12 pathways and have graduated. This was held on December 5 of this year in the school’s newly built gymnasium. This was a bittersweet moment as students, parents and the wider community not only celebrated the graduands but also farewelled the outgoing Principal, Mrs. Karina Mills.
Mrs. Mills — founder and principal of Kompiam International School — has resigned, after dedicatedly serving the school for 15 years. Almost synonymous with the name KIS, is the name and reputation of this wonderful woman, and many have loathed to see her go. Her work has been a powerful beacon and testament of the love of Christ. And as she leaves, we wish her all the best for the future, and hope to see her again, God willing. Thank you, Mrs. Mills for your hard work and service may God bless and keep you!
