 Gateway Christian School seeks to provide quality but affordable education to disadvantaged children who would not be able to afford the private and other schools in the area. Since opening under a different name in 1992, the school has grown immensely and now contains 9 classrooms, a library and an administration block. In this time over 500 disadvantaged children have been given high quality education.
 As a school we are delighted with how far we have come, but are not content to stop here. The school currently has a number of strategic goals, all of which require funding. These include:
-
To build a block of toilets for Grade 5, 6 and 7 girls. This will provide some privacy to older girls who are currently sharing the same toilets with younger girls. This is estimated at R90 000.
-
To purchase 30 Computers and software for learners. This will enable us to provide computer lessons to learners from Grades 1 to 7. We also want to run a computer literacy course, at a fee, for parents of children who attend our school. This is estimated at estimated at R200 000.
-
To buy more text books and reading books for Grades 0 to 7 to be used alongside the National Curriculum which we have been busy implementing. This is estimated at R60, 000 over two years.
