Interview with Helen Hall - 1818

Helen Hall is a dedicated teacher serving as a volunteer administrator at a school in a refugee camp in Thailand. She has been there about 36 years.

The school is large with about 900 students and 50 teachers. She tells of the adventures, dangers and rewards of such work. Originally Helen took a one year leave of absence from teaching in Australia to go teach in Thailand, but she never returned to work in Australia again.

Although she doesn’t have the luxuries of a western lifestyle she feels she has not given up a thing! She feels God has given her freedom to work overseas. She is not planning on retiring or she would get bored. She said she has celebrated her 80th birthday. Helen’s goal is to train future leaders and by the way, she still has a full teaching load!
