Boys’ Home
We have a total of 30 boys ranging from ages 7 to 16. Boys are allowed to remain in the home until their education is complete.
 L.A.M.B.S. Educare Our creche was started in 1994 as a fully registered Educare Centre. We have over 100 children from the Ark itself, Mfuleni, Khayelitsha, and other private residents. The creche services children ages 18 months to 7 years old.
Ark Christian School "... and a little child should lead them." Isiah 11:6 The Ark Christian School is an educational ministry, focusing on the holistic development of the child in a Christian environment. Born of a need to educate the children of addicts and the homeless undergoing rehabilitation at the Ark, our school started in 1993 with informal lessons. Presently, the school has 220 students. It caters to children of the Ark as well as learners from surrounding areas such as Mfuleni, Khayelitsha, and Langa. Our school's success can be measured by those students who have matriculated onto UCT, UWC, Unisa, Cape Peninsula University of Technology, and other tertiary institutions. It is safe to say that many of these children would not have had this opportunity otherwise due to their prior circumsatnces. |
