We firmly believe, according to 2 Timothy 3:16-17, "all scripture is useful for teaching and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work".
The purpose of Helderberg Christian School is to help Christian parents carry out their responsibility to educate their children with a Christian world view.
