V2 Life began in Vanuatu in 2009 with a vision: to train young people to become all that God wants them to be, so that they could carry the gospel of Jesus to the unreached communities of the world. We started with the goal of teaching young aspiring missionaries how to both understand the bible in our training centre, and how to apply it to community development using training on our farm which equips them with sustainable development capability.
Soon after we began our first missionary training in 2012, our neighbours asked for a school. Their children had no access to education in our relatively remote area, and as missionaries they saw us as the answer to that need. In prayer, our vision grew and we found ourselves building a kindergarten. With support from churches, governments and private donors, a kindergarten became a small primary school building in 2016, and the vision grew. Teouma Christian Academy aims to grow into a full Kindergarten – Year 13 School. For now, we’re focused on providing excellent Primary education, growing one classroom building at a time.
