Discover the inspiring story of Tabeetha School in Jaffa, Israel—a beacon of peace, hope, and co-existence for 163 years.

A series of talks to highlight the unique Church of Scotland school are being held in churches in Edinburgh and in Dunblane next month.

Kate Freedman, development officer at Tabeetha School, will explain why it is a "living expression" of the Kirk's Christian witness in the Holy Land.

The English-speaking school educates children and young people from Christian, Jewish, Muslim and other backgrounds aged 4-18, helping to foster a greater understanding of humanity in a country where divisions are deep.

Described as a "living peace project", it enables more than 300 students of 35 nationalities to learn and grow side by side in mutual respect, dignity, and understanding.

The free-to-attend events are an opportunity for people to hear about the unique Christian school's mission to prepare younger generations to contribute to a more peaceful and hopeful society in the Holy Land.

Kate, a former head of the primary school at Tabeetha, said: "Every day, Christian, Jewish and Muslim children and young people learn side by side in an atmosphere of respect, friendship and shared purpose.

"In a region often defined by division, Tabeetha quietly models what peaceful co-existence can look like.

"Having taught there for five years, I saw firsthand how pupils form genuine friendships despite differences.

"The school does not ignore the complexities of the world around it, but it gives them the tools to respond with empathy rather than fear - that is why it matters."
