Graham Preston - Legacy Interviews

Graham, visionary founder and first principal of Bethlehem College, helped grow a remarkable Christ-centred educational campus with a mission to grow Christian leaders.

This inspiring story reflects his faith, leadership, and more than 55 years in New Zealand education, including 38+ years at Bethlehem College. Graham honours the governors, teachers, mentors, friends, and families who shared the journey.

He also shares the life-changing story of meeting Vicky on a camping trip. She pointed him towards Jesus, becoming his beloved wife, mother to their two children, Cathryn and Jonathan, grandmother to five, and great-grandmother to three—and counting.

A story of faith, family, leadership, and legacy.
