About Our School

Barachel Christian Academy was started in 1993 by Mrs D Watson and Mrs S Mettam with a view to provide sound Christian Education to the children of Randfontein. In order to facilitate this intention, Mrs Watson and Mrs Mettam, as members of St Magnus Presbyterian Church registered B.C.A with the School of Tomorrow. This allowed Barachel to provide a sound Christian education, using the Bible based Accelerated Christian Education (A.C.E) programme. Jesus said to them, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.’ And he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them. Mark 10:14.
Barachel Christian Academy strives for excellence in Christian Education. We use the curriculum as set out by Accelerated Christian Education in conjunction with the South African Curriculum.
We believe the school is a missionary outreach into our community.
Our ministry, through the means of quality Christian Education, is to bring our students to a saving knowledge of our Lord, Jesus Christ. We aim to build Christian character through the PACE method and a loving Christian environment. There is a place for students with special educational needs. We endeavour to help all those who want Christian Education and who are willing to make the necessary sacrifices.
Our staff motto is “Let Jesus be seen in me today.”
We praise God for His unfailing love and support. We want to please Him in all that we do especially in how we treat the students.
