ABOUT US

To see that children, the leaders of the future, find their rightful place in this world. Children with a purpose, created to develop, grow and reach their full potential in God.
WHO WE ARE
Pure Hope School is a Pre-primary and Primary educational institution for under privileged children. The institution is rooted in the Christian faith and was established with the primary goal to reach out and minister to children, illustrating the heart and love of Jesus towards them.
WHAT WE DO
We strive for a positive change in South Africa and believe that it needs to start with the education of our children, the future adults of our country. We have 6 pre-school classes, each of them tutoring 16-20 learners. We have a total of 97 learner between 2-5 years. Our Grade R center has 36 learners. The Primary school, currently Grade 1-7, has a total amount of 178 learners. It is critical to limit the number of children per class in order to ensure that they receive optimal attention and stimulation.
The school programme focuses on developing the children in all areas and aspects of their lives. Their lingual, visual and motor skills as well as the development of perception are addressed on a daily basis.
The children are provided with breakfast, snacks and refreshments during morning-tea and lunch. Every child’s birthday is celebrated with a specially baked birthday cake.
OUR CHILDREN
Pure Hope School has been established to fulfill in the developmental needs for underprivileged children. The school accommodates children from the immediate environment including the nearby located informal settlement. We strive to bring hope in a broken world. All the children attending the school come from underprivileged circumstances and broken homes. Most have received very little stimulation in their lives. At Pure Hope School they are exposed to a new and positive world where we endeavor to broaden their perspective. We are in the position to detect children’s emotional and physical needs which are numerous and have the opportunity to handle problems and ensure that they receive proper care.

Verse B1:
Who shall ascend to the hill of the Lord?
Who will stand in his holy place?
The one who has hands and a heart that is clean
And who always seek His face
Bridge C:
I will open up my mouth- His praises to sing
I will open up my eyes to see the unseen
I will open up my heart for revelation he brings
I will open my hands to serve the great King.
I will open up my mind to think what is good
I will loosen my tongue to speak only truth
I will open up my ears to His voice every day.
And direct my feet to walk in His way.
Chorus
Verse B 2:
With a shield on my side, and a Sword in my hand I will conquer the enemy
I will not be defeated, in faith I will stand
In His Name there is victory.
Bridge D: 2x
I have a strong faith, I can reach someone
I have a pure Hope, I will overcome
I have a deep love, it can change the world
And nothing is impossible for God.
I have a strong faith, I can reach someone
I have a pure Hope, I will overcome
I have a deep love, it can change the world
And nothing is impossible for God.
Chorus
Rap
Shine, shine, shine, his glory to the nations
Shine, shine, shine, his glory to the world
We are the children of hope
We are the chosen ones
We are the royal priesthood
That will always overcome
His blessings overtake us
Every single day
His goodness and his mercy
Follow all the way
His promises give Hope
And that will see me through
His favour is forever
For everyone, for you
His Words are so powerful
With healing in its wings
Until Jesus will return
We will shout and sing!
We will shout and sing!
We will shout and sing!
