VISIONTo be the Christian school of choice for parents, especially
Seventh-day Adventist parents, in the northern suburbs of theCity of Cape Town, South Africa.
SCHOOL SONGFrom the halls of Good Hope High School comes the call to youth,
Bidding them to join the battle in the cause of truth.We have heard Thy call to service, Master, unto Thee
From each heart the answer rises ‘Here am I, send me.’
ChorusIn paths of service ever loyal and to the cause of duty true,
We follow ever where He leadeth, and do alone what He would do.The flag of truth undaunted bearing in fields at home
and fields abroad,Until the last of earth’s great empires becomes the
Kingdom of our Lord.
Soon our school days will be over and our studies o’er,But life’s greatest textbook lies beyond the open door.May we all as worthy students, by Thy power and love,
Pass the great examination for Thy School above.
- Chorus -
Through the whole of life’s long battle, we on Thee rely‘Til the glory of Thy morning breaks in yonder sky.
Then with all Thy ransomed children, may we bring to TheeWorthy fruits of time and talent for eternity.
