Afutara

Facilities include four classrooms, two workshops, a library, kitchen, dining hall, three boys' dormitories, and one for girls, plus seven staff houses. There is a chapel for worship. We have electricity (supplied by a generator) and a two-way radio for communication. Sanitation is good - an 800 gallon reservoir water tank driven by electrical motor, supplies the centre with drinking water. For transport, we have one aluminium canoe with an outboard motor. There is also a tractor for farming and loading.
We offer residential courses to males and females of all denominations, and have accommodation for 120 students. There are currently eight staff members at the centre, who are paid a salary by the SDA church. The European Union provides the centre with financial support for materials and enterprises. We are a Full Member of SIARTC.

We are a residential centre, managed by the Malaita Mission of the Seventh Day Adventist Church. The Church developed the centre in 1974 from a former primary school (founded in 1964). We are proud of our graduates who have a reputation for high performance. Our aim is to develop the physical, mental, social and spiritual potential of young adults, whilst preparing them for successful and meaningful employment. We try to encourage self- sufficiency - growing our own root crops and fruit, baking bread and buns, and raising money for the centre through various enterprises. We sell vegetables at the market in Auki, and to surrounding communities. We also manage a store, fuel depot and a building maintenance service (our students have built staff houses at the local hospital during their mid-year break).
The centre's buildings are concrete or leaf.
