In its own words
We make the facility available for the operation of an alternative christian school. We ensure that the students are educated with a biblical perspective in life and to acknowledge jesus christ as their lord and emphasize the need for a personal relationship with him. We challenge students to excel in character and leadership and to serve their community in the name of jesus christ. We have been in operation since 1978 and currently train approximately 900 students from age 3 to grade 12. We operate an early learning childcare centre for age 3 to grade 6.
