Hey hey,

As Project Week coming closer and closer, we are doing some research for the areas we’re going to visit. It’s really diverse, as we’re not staying in one place, but moving constantly. It’s going to be a very intense experience, because we will be constantly moving from place to place, project to project.

We have both service and activity aspects within the trip, however, the activity dominates.

This is the outline of our week:

27 May – Monday: arrival and transfer to the Bohol Islands. Start to prepare for kayaking and also engage with the local community.

28 May – Tuesday: Paddle to Mangrove Rehabilitation sire for Mangrove Education program. We will collect mangrove wilding, construct mangrove nursery and also replant some mangroves too

29 May – Wednesday: We are paddling to middle Abatan River, where we will engage with the local community and help to construct shelter materials for them.

30 May – Thursday: Paddle to upper Abatan River, where we will help to the local NGO with refurbishment. Then we will return to yesterday’s camp.

31 May – Friday: Coming back to Singapore.

I believe that during this trip, we will have the chance to explore Learning Outcome 3 (demonstrate and initiate a CAS experience), LO 5 (demonstrate the skills and recognise the benefits of working collaboratively, and LO6 (demonstrate engagement with issues of global significance.
