REHOBOTH CHRISTIAN SCHOOL trading as EAST COAST CHRISTIAN COLLEGE

About Us

Rehoboth Christian School, originally named Amanzimtoti Christian School was founded in January 1989 for the purpose of educating children, both academically and spiritually, using a Bible based curriculum. Initially housed in a local church building, the school started with 30 pupils and 4 staff members.
By the end of the year, the school had grown to 50 pupils, predominantly Senior Primary.
By 1990 the school had outgrown the facilities and application was made to the Natal Education Dept. for premises in Illovo Beach. After much negotiation and prayer they granted the premise, bond free, and in June 1991 a new era began.

The name " Rehoboth" is found in Genesis 26:22, "He (Isaac) moved on from there and dug another well, and no one quarreled over it. He named it Rehoboth, saying, "Now the Lord has given us room and we will flourish in the  land."

With the change in management in 2005 also came a name change to trading as East Coast Christian College. 

In 2007  we adopted and adapted the National Curriculum Statement of South Africa. 

The school provides a broad and comprehensive academic education relevant to the learner’s physical, intellectual, social, emotional and spiritual needs. The curriculum fosters independent and critical thinking and develops in learners a sense of self-worth and self-confidence.

The aim is to equip learners with, inter-alia, moral and spiritual skills that would help prepare individuals for society.
