About Us

Sonrise Christian School was established in January 1996 as an English medium school, situated at 28 Green Avenue, Edleen, Kempton Park, serving the needs of learners from grade RR to 12. We are registered with the Gauteng Department of Education.

Our raison d’etre is to provide a holistic approach to the education of children – imparting spiritual values which serve as a foundation; providing an environment which promotes emotional wellbeing; stimulating and developing the child’s physical interests and talents; and sharpening the life skills necessary for every child to become a mature, productive member of society.

Mission

Our mission is to assist parents in the nurturing of their children, using individualized, biblically based education to inspire young men and women to achieve their highest potential.

Our team of dedicated staff members all have the necessary qualifications and are registered with the South African Council of Educators.
