TEENAGERS WHO ARE ACTIVE PARTICIPANTS IN THEIR OWN FUTURE

This programme is based on the premise that building an accountable generation, that will take responsibility for their own future, is the best way to bring real change and hope to the community. Learners have the option to register for the modules of the programme that they are interested in. We can accommodate more than 100 learners per week.

iKamva@Legacy consists of the following modules:

The IT skills module focusses on the development of computer skills to support the vision of a ‘journey towards employability’. Our aim is to make sure that all our learners are computer literate when they leave school. All the learners learn how to type, and they do an online computer course.  

Ukusebenza has two tiers: ‘Explore’ and ‘Generate’. ‘Explore’ will enable learners to explore who they are, to discover different career fields, identify subject requirements for these fields and to identify possible courses. ‘Generate’ exposes the learners to business/entrepreneurship.

Siyafunda is an English literacy module that explores reading, comprehension, writing, oral and creative literacy via poetry, writing and orals.

A Leadership module takes a group of 20 teens, across all ages, on a journey to explore their potential as leaders. The vision of the programme is to develop a young leader with balanced values.

There is also a space for homework and access to the laptops and printer for study purposes.

The Grade 12 group (learners who were registered with Legacy in the previous year) has space to study, with access to the internet and sessions with an educational psychologist.
