Our Vision

NZCPT has a national vision to assist local groups in providing accessible, quality, Christ-centred, Bible-based education which inspires, transforms, and equips pupils to love God and change the world for Him.

 

Children are a gift from God

The Bible instructs parents to nurture their children in the fear of the Lord. Parents have a great responsibility to bring up their children in such a way as to prepare them for life and for godliness. Family practices and involvement in the wider body of Christ "train children in the way they should go." God's blessing passes down through the generations of their faithful families.

​

A pivotal choice Christian families will make is – how will our children be educated?

Historically, the role of education rested primarily within the family. Over time, agencies outside the family have assumed aspects of the educational role. In the 21st Century, New Zealand families can choose to homeschool, or delegate some responsibility for the education of their children to schools outside the family (private, state-integrated, state). We are blessed in this nation to have such a choice.

If a parent is to delegate some responsibility for their education to agencies outside the family, then to whom and on what basis? State-integrated Christian schools are an amazing option!
