About Christ College
Fundraising
It
is our belief that the teachings of the Ageless Wisdom should
be made available to all people, independent of their financial
status. We count on the generous voluntary donations of our students
and supporters so that our programs can continue to expand and
reach more individuals and groups.
We
wish to thank the many donors who have contributed to our work
and made it possible for us to purchase the 155 acre property
on which Christ College is sited. Donations have also built the
Meditation Temple and created the forestry project that will provide
a future stream of money.
Our
current project is student accommodation (estimated cost: $800,000
NZD). Once completed it will house twenty students and four tutors.
The success of this project will allow the five-year residential
program to begin.
With
your support we can continue contributing to the expansion of
human consciousness at this time of planetary crisis and expectancy.
Our work is not endowed and we, therefore, depend upon your generous
support.

Projects
The Meditation Temple was inaugurated in June 2003 and Long Bay
House has been renovated and refurbished as a self-contained teaching
space.
Plans
for the next stage of building are underway. Fundraising continues
with the plan for the project to generate enough money to release
the current mortgage and loan to continue with the building and
development at the site.
The School’s architect is drawing up design concepts for
the main buildings of the school. This will include classrooms,
student housing and administration buildings.
Current
Projects
Accommodation
for Students and Staff
We are at the preliminary stage of a major new building
project. An architectural design has been created for student
accommodation for the school. This first accommodation block will
house twenty students and four faculty members.
Initially,
this accommodation my also be rented to workshop students or those
doing retreats at Christ College. They will provide an income
which can be used to fund the program of the school.
The initial estimate of cost is $800,000 NZD. If you would like
to help with this project, please Contact
Us.
Landscaping
Megan Wraight, a well known landscape architect from
Wellington, has drawn up concept designs for landscaping around
the temple, existing buildings and future Christ College buildings.
Planting began in October 2004. This is an ongoing project that
will continue over the next five to ten years.
Future
Projects
Creating larger permanent workshop and teaching spaces
Creating kitchen and office spaces
Continuing with the landscaping and forestry projects
Offering an increased range of workshops, courses and conferences
