Bursary Learners at the Centurus Colleges

Why Should We Send Children to Independent Schools?

One of Africa’s greatest needs is that of strong leadership.  We believe that leaders are cultivated from a young age.  However, youths with the basic ingredients of intelligence and drive will become leaders only if they receive a solid education. 

Independent schools in South Africa, afforded by the financial elite, attract many of our country’s best teachers and offer world-class facilities, along with a range of extra mural activities, ingredients critical to developing a well-rounded individual.  These schools chart a path of excellence, and produce most of the future leaders of South Africa.  Independent schools cater for about two percent of our country's learners, and the majority of these are white.  Deracialisation of our schooling system has become a priority for government and educators alike.

Can you Help us Support these Children?

We are looking for sponsorship of bursary learners, ranging in cost from R22,000 per annum for a Grade 000 learner, to R84,000 per annum for a Grade 12 boarder. All corporate donations qualify for SARS tax exemption under our 18a status.
