“The school farm is to be regarded as a lessonbook in nature from which the teachers may draw their object lessons. Our students are to be taught that Christ, who created the world and all things that are therein, is the life and light of every living thing. The life of every child and youth who is willing to grasp the opportunities of receiving a proper education will be made thankful and happy while at school by the things upon which his eyes shall rest.” {6T 181.4}

"Skolens landbrug skal betragtes som en naturens lærebog, (182) hvorfra lærerne skal hente deres anskuelsesundervisning. Vore elever skal undervises om, at Kristus, som skabte verden og alt, hvad deri er, er liv og lys for alt levende. Om ethvert barn og ungt menneske, der er villigt til at gribe anledningen til at få en rigtig uddannelse, gælder det, at de ting, dets øjne dvæler ved under skoleopholdet, vil gøre dets liv taknemmeligt og lykkeligt."
