Education

Given the opportunity to work with and help the children improve their English in a beautiful part of the world was an absolute privilege.
You will reap the rewards if you commit to the task, seeing a child’s smile and excitement when they are able to read a new word or finish a page of a reading book was amazing.
The Atlas team are very open to individuals own ideas, encouraging and supporting. The school and all teachers were brilliant and we were included in any activities and events.
Oh! and the kids?… The kids were just wonderful, an absolute pleasure, polite, happy, funny and focused to learn. I miss them all!
There are plenty of things to do in your free time; organised trips, markets and socialising with the locals who were welcoming and friendly.
I wasn’t sure how I would find it being an ‘older’ volunteer but I was immediately at ease at the house as the team welcomed me.
This was my first time doing anything like this and definitely not my last. I can’t wait to return to the Atlas family and the African sunshine x
