While many of our families do belong to Harvest, we also serve a wide range of Christian churches in the broader community of believers.

Yes. Our mission statement states that: ‘Harvest Christian School exists to serve the Christian family…’ We endeavour to enrol families who desire Christian upbringing, teachings, norms and values for their children, so that the values of the home are supported by the school and vice versa.

If you seek admission, it is wise to apply by April of the year preceding enrolment.

Yes. We have a variety of family dynamics in our school.

We use a range of excellent and proven Bible-based curricula, which we have merged and adapted over the years to suit our own circumstances. In Grade R, we teach Phonics from the ACE (Accelerated Christian Education) Reading Readiness Programme. This programme has suited us very well over the years. It not only gives an excellent thorough grounding in the 35 phonetic sounds covered, but also includes character-building and life skills from a Christian perspective. We also use an extended CAPS Numeracy Programme in Grade R. 

We are a Christ-centred Bible-based school, with a loving and nurturing environment. We aim to pursue excellence in the education and development of the whole child. We see the Pre-Primary as an extension of the Christian family and our role as one of supporting parents in the training up of their children.
