NYPS Service Learning Trip to Dalat, Vietnam 2016

NYPS is organising our 8th Overseas Service Learning Trip this November/December and we will be partnering with YMCA to help the underprivileged children at Bach Dang Primary School located at Dalat, Vietnam. This will be our 2nd time going to Vietnam to help the underprivileged children there. We will be doing conducting basic English & Craft lessons for the students and doing some infrastructure building (eg repairing, resurfacing and concretizing of the courtyard) in the school. In addition, we will be conducting lessons for the street children in Love School (a school that offers free education in the morning).

 

Please note that it will be a "first-come-first-get" basis and we hope to form a team comprising of our NYPS staff, pupils and their parents. We can only accommodate 36 slots (10 children and 26 adults) and successful applications are based on full submission of documents and payment.
