Program Details

Volunteers are coordinated by a volunteers coordinator who handles all their logistics and answers to queries. Once a volunteer arrives they are shown their accommodation and they sign the volunteers book. We have a child protection policy in place and volunteers are always asked to sign a copy.

Most of the work is determined by the school schedule. School begins at 8:00am and ends at 4:00pm

Rules

Lights out at 10:00am at the accommodation
The accommodation is a no-smoking zone however smokers can get a convenient space outside.
Alcohol is prohibited at the accommodation due to the hosts religious beliefs but also because it conflicts with the child protection policy. However volunteers can still access it outside the accommodation
