Legends Academy

Our academics are set to a standard of high quality. We make sure that our curriculum is above the governmental standard that other schools are set upon. We strive to give your child the best education academically and socially. This means that we concentrate not only on our academics but also the development of good morals, social manners and etiquette. We want to inspire your child to want to better themselves.   

There are two basic intervals of Primary school and the subjects and objectives differ between the two. The first interval is your foundation phase which consists of Grades 1 – 3. Your second phase which is your intermediate phase consists of the Grades 4 – 7. We here at Legends Academy accommodate for both phases of Primary school level. We also offer an Aftercare program which continues during the holidays and takes a break over Christmas and New years. 

Grade 1 – 3
These are the foundation years upon which the rest of your school career is based. We believe that it is imperative that your child receives a strong foundation in all areas. These years focuses on the basic areas of mathematics, language, life orientation and physical development. During your child’s final years at pre-primary school they learn basic number recognition and functionality as well as basic shapes and perception. We use this knowledge and build upon it incorporating more complex concepts of money, time, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Our language area (which includes both English and Afrikaans) is divided into sub-sections of reading, comprehension skills, spelling, word building and writing skills. Life orientation concentrates on the rules and responsibilities and consequences that occur during everyday life. We encourage and give ample opportunity for your child to spend time outside, learning and developing physical abilities. Throughout the year we participate in certain sports with the children such as soccer, cricket swimming and netball which help develop hand-eye coordination, balance, agility and muscle movement. Incorporated in our curriculum are computers, art, Bible studies and music. 

Grade 4 – 7
This is the intermediate phase which by this stage your child has all the basic foundation knowledge in mathematics, language and life orientation. Due to the increase in your child’s growth and understanding we are able to introduce new subjects such as Natural Science, Technology, History, and Geography. We continue to develop the main areas which are incorporated into the new subjects. The sub-sections of the main areas are still continued and increase and complexity and quantity as the school years progress. Art, computers, music, Bible studies and physical development are still an important inclusion in our curriculum. Our quality of teaching and curriculum will continue to remain a top priority. 

Aftercare
The Aftercare program runs every week day till 17:00. Aftercare is a program that is also open to children that are not learners at Legends Academy. There are teachers that will help with your child’s homework and assist in any areas that your child has difficulty with. There is lunch and juice each day which is part of the Aftercare package. Transport is available to and from schools in the neighbouring areas.

Holiday Program
We have a holiday program at Legends Academy that is open to Primary school children (Grade 1-7). There is a holiday program for children younger than Grade 1 which Little Legends Pre-School hosts. Each day we plan fun activities and outings for the children to keep them busy and entertained during the holidays. Lunch and juice is included however we do ask that your child brings along a snack such as a fruit, a packet of chips or yoghurt for snack time.   

Abacus Maths
This is a program set where external ladies join us and teach the children mathematic skills. This is perfect for a child that is maybe struggling with maths or would like to do that little extra mile for the advantage of being ahead in mathematic skills when entering the next stage of primary school. Get a head start now.

Sports
Learning how to play the different sports is vital in developing specific physical abilities. Such abilities that need developing are balance, hand-eye coordination, aim, throwing, kicking, running, jumping and other movements. Each day during our breaks and after school we involve the children in some soccer, cricket or netball.

Swimming
Swimming is an important skill to learn now days and it is even more helpful to learn as early in your life as possible. We offer the chance to develop this skill. Legends Academy has their own pool and during the warmer seasons we have swimming lessons during our Physical Education lessons. It is a hands on approach where we get in the water with your child and help develop skills such as kicking, swimming, holding your breath and general comfort and familiarity in the water.
