A recent trip highlighted a special ongoing relationship between two schools more than 11,000 km apart.

Bulkley Valley Christian School (BVCS) and Nanfayie Christian School in Sierra Leone have been sister schools since 2016, building on a historic connection between the two communities of Smithers and Nanafayie.

In early April, a group of staff members and students travelled to Sierra Leone for 11 days, touring the country.
