hellenic community of pretoria

The Hellenic Community of Pretoria (HCP) was founded on the 1 July 1908, and was officially inaugurated under the chairmanship of George Golfinopoulos.

The HCP has the following committees that are associated under the Main Council:

Benevolent Committee,
Church Committee,
School Committee,
Dancing Committee

We also have two Independent Committees: Pretoria Hellenic Youth Committee (PHYC) and the Hellenic Sports Club Committee.

The community is devoted in keeping Hellenism alive by:
• Encouraging members to uphold and maintain our Orthodox religion, language, culture, heritage and traditions
• Uphold and maintain the status of the Greek Community
• Uphold and maintain the Greek School and Greek Dancing
• Address future needs of the second, third, fourth generation of Hellenes and
• Uphold the objectives as stipulated in our Constitution.

Today, the HCP has approximately 500 members, with about 100 pupils at three different school locations (Community School, Cornwall and St Paulus) as well as online and about 80 pupils learning traditional dances at the Community. We oversee the running of the Greek Orthodox Church of the Annunciation of the Theotokos (Mother of God), School, Dancing and Cultural Centre.
The HCP is a member of the Federation of Hellenic Communities and celebrates Greek ethnic and religious events.
