Zwartkop Christian School

Zwartkop Christian School

A Word from our Principal
” In a Christ centered school every child should be anchored in Christian values and should understand that being a child of God makes them an ambassador of the Kingdom. Children should be looked after holistically ensuring they have a healthy spirit, soul, and body. Every child should understand their identity in Christ in order to impact the generation of which they are a part of. Educators are guides who facilitate learning with an understanding that every child is different. It should be the school’s biggest priority to assist a child to discover their distinctive calling, and children should be taught to become critical thinkers, problem solvers, and good communicators to help them navigate through life confidently.
At Zwartkop Christian School we strive to help every child to fulfil their full potential. “
