Volgens mnr. Schilling is ‘n onderwyser se droom dat elke kind sy volle potensiaal sal uitleef met toewyding en integriteit. Elke kind moet daarna streef om hul drome en die lewe met durf en moed aan te pak. “Mag elke seun en dogter van Laerskool Barberton geseën wees, nie net wanneer dit goed gaan nie, maar ook wanneer die minder goed gaan. Wanneer julle struikel, onthou die lewenslesse wat ‘n onderwyser jou geleer het, en weet dat daar altyd ‘n onderwyser is wat omgee,” het hy gesê.
