» WILD COAST SCHOOLS PROJECT

Be a part of the amazing experience of bringing computer literacy to this beautiful coastal region of South Africa and enable disadvantaged kids from rural South Africa to have a chance at a realistic future.

In addition to teaching in our rural Wild Coast schools, volunteers take part in running Community Development initiatives. Current initiatives include a Sports Development initiative with local Chintsa children. Volunteers also support a local orphanage where they help the children with their homework and spend some valuable one-on-one time with them.

This project comes highly recommended and offers volunteers the chance to become part of the local community where they can really make a difference. We always ask our volunteer teachers what the highlight of their experience was and their top highlight is always...the KIDS!

Included: 3 meals per day, all accommodation, highly skilled and knowledgeable project co-ordinators and 24 hour support.

Starts: Projects start every Monday and operate throughout the year except on school holidays. Click here for 2013 start dates

Requirements: Basic computer literacy, basic level of spoken English, a minimum age of 18 and lots of energy and enthusiasm. A background in education or teaching would be a benefit but is not essential.
