  • Being Part of the SPH Team

Together, we nurture a loving and supportive community in Christ

Since 1993, SPH has committed to providing both Indonesian and expatriate families with excellent Christian education,

where we focus on academic excellence, faith, character building, and personal growth. More than a school facility or a regular workplace, SPH is a community, a team, walking hand in hand in our ministry through international Christian education with our faith in Christ as our foundation.

SPH forms part of a ministry of educational institutions under Yayasan Pendidikan Pelita Harapan (YPPH), with almost 60 schools throughout Indonesia. YPPH offers a Christ-centered western style of education taught in Bahasa Indonesia. YPPH has extended education opportunities in the mountainous area of Papua, where education facilities are limited. Watch this video to see a glimpse of our school as part of a bigger mission:
