ROBOTICS AT LEGACY
Legacy International School seeks to catch them young in robotics. Why? What is robotics? In practice, robotics is a field that encompasses science, engineering, technology and information technology (particularly coding). Although many organisations dabble in artificial intelligence and developing robots in the stereotypical sense, the field of robotics is continuously expanding and involves various sub-field in automation-especially in the engineering industry. The endless opportunities when combining coding, engineering and science leads to new jobs and career opportunities developing each day - most of which involve some degree of coding, data analysis, artificial intelligence, machine automation and scientific principles.

CYBERSECURITY AT LEGACY
What is Cybersecurity? Why is Legacy International School offering Cybersecurity from a young age? Cyber Security is basically protecting computers, computer networks and internet connected devices, from unwanted and unauthorized intrusion. Teaching Cyber Security at a young age helps children grow with the right mindset on how to be safe online and how to safely use digital devices in a world growing ever more reliant on the internet and technology.

Plus our hidden curriculum that adds value - as stated in our logo "ad valorem". Our hidden curriculum gives each child confidence by anchoring them on ethical values, principles and a solid spiritual foundation which enables them to have a healthy self- esteem from a young age, understanding their true sense of identity, purpose and destiny.

BACKGROUND

Legacy was founded by a desperate mother who could not secure a place for her child at any of the private schools where her other children had been. The appreciation of high standards in education based on her experience as a former private scholl teacher, a Corporate Executive at TWR & other companies, Company Director, Pastor, Leadership Training Coach & Personal/ Marriage/ Family life counsellor, she decided to take leaps of faith in obedience to the call - a call which she had ignored for ten years! She and her husband started the school in November 2005 in a house in Borrowdale with (7) seven children. The seven little stars are a reminder of where LIS started. Legacy, therefore, is responding to a real need in our nation, to widen the base of quality private school education.
