| WELCOME TO LIFE ORIENTATION! | ||||
Life Orientation is the study of the self in relation to others and society, and uses a holistic approach. It is concerned with the personal, social, intellectual, emotional and physical growth and development of learners. This subject guides and prepares learners for life, its responsibilities and possibilities. It equips learners with knowledge, values, attitudes and skills that enable them to make informed decisions and choices, and take appropriate actions to live meaningfully and successfully in a rapidly changing society. The purpose of Life Orientation is to enable young people who are moving towards independence and adulthood to face challenges, assume responsibilities, and exploit life's opportunities. It enables learners to exercise their constitutional rights and responsibilities, respect the rights of others and value diversity, health and well-being. It helps to prepare learners to respond effectively to the challenges of the adult world and to play a meaningful role in society and the economy. |
