WELCOME
A School Community Built On Hope
Founded in 1998, Word of Life Christian School has grown into a warm, close-knit community where children are known by name and nurtured in faith. We follow the CAPS curriculum with IEB-assessed examinations, giving our learners a credible, respected qualification – while every day is shaped by Christian values, care, and character.
Hope that your child will become a better person. Hope that someone will see their potential. Hope that they’ll be safe, challenged, loved, and prepared for life. That’s the responsibility – and privilege – we carry every single day.
