School renovation and teaching English on Java Island, Indonesia

The volunteer project will be based in Sulursari. International volunteer projects have been organized here in the past three years. The interaction between foreign volunteers and the children, during education and vocational classes, is of great benefit for the students, teachers, as well as the local people. The intercultural dimension that their presence generates is also welcomed and valued by the local staff. The support that the volunteers provide to the teaching staff, particularly those teaching English, is invaluable.

The international volunteers will be involved in renovation work in the school. They will also teach English and organize games for the kids.
