Who we are
Simon Peter is an independent pre-school based in Hillcrest. We offer a playgroup, 18 months to 2 years, and Grade 0000 to Grade R. So all your preschool years are under one roof. We also offer remedial intervention in a Christian-centred environment, balancing play and education to help children grow socially, cognitively and spiritually. With a loyal, long-serving team of qualified and experienced teachers and small class sizes to ensure individual attention, Simon Peter offers an accessible yet high-quality pre-school education to members of the local community.
Aims
Our aim is to communicate and practise the basics of biblical Christianity. In addition, we aim to provide a secure, wholesome and stimulating environment for pre-school children. We endeavour to achieve this by exposing children to creative play as well as a programme of education, structured to cater for the child’s spiritual, cognitive and social needs.
Standards
We maintain a high educational standard in order to meet the requirements of the Education Department. We are, however, not a government pre-primary school. Simon Peter is a non-profit ministry of the Hillcrest Baptist Church, funded entirely by donations, school fees and fund raising. All parents will be interviewed prior to acceptance.
