Encourage children to learn English and improve
educational facilities on Bali Island
Jembrana, Bali Island
March 3 - March 17, 2012
Volunteer project: Jembrana is one of the Regencies in Bali Island. It is located in the western part of the island. Jembarana can be reached in 2 hours by car or by bus from Denpasar. Unlike the capital city of Denpasar, Jembarana is a peaceful and quite place. There are a lot of rice fields stretching along the regency. Moreover, the local community is very open and warm to visitors.
SMP 2 Mendoyo is a state secondary school located in Mendoyo Subdistric, Jembrana Regency, Bali Island. The school was established in 1982. There are 3 grades all together, 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade; each grade consists of 5 classes from A-E, where 25 students are accommodated in each class. There are 50 teachers who have dedicated their skills and knowledge to the children’s education. The students are between 12-14 years old and their English level is beginners. Therefore, we are inviting international volunteers to this project in order to encourage and motivate the students to enhance their English skills, as well as build better education facilities for the school.
