Calling All GMS(S) Parents...




Interested to tap on God's unlimited resources as you parent your teens?
Commit your works to the LORD
And your plans will be established. Proverbs 16:3
As Christian parents of teens at GMSS, we can support each other in our 'work' as parents and trust God to direct our way towards effective parenting.

School's Mission
'With God's help,
we strive to develop in our pupils a sense of integrity,
compassion for others,
their skills and intellect and the love for learning
to enable them to serve worthy purposes in society'
We desire God's help in accomplishing the mission. While the school is actively pursuing it through programmes, we as parents can come alongside to support in different ways too. Let us unite and involve God in accomplishing the mission.

HOW?
Partnership Through Prayer (PTP) is an arm of the Parent Support Group @GMSS specially mobilized to unite in prayer for the school's mission.
