Overview

The children at the kindergarten in Senggigi are just beginning their educational journey, and being introduced to English at such a young age can be incredibly beneficial for their future.

As is typical in kindergartens worldwide, the learning environment is informal—these little ones are often more interested in playing than sitting through structured lessons. But by simply making school a fun and welcoming place, and introducing basic English phrases like simple greetings, you’ll be planting the seeds for a lifelong interest in learning.

You can expect a very warm welcome from the children. They’ll be genuinely excited to see you—not only because of their natural curiosity and friendliness, which reflects the warm-hearted culture of Lombok, but also because you may be one of the first foreigners they’ve ever met!

Lombok is a beautiful island in Indonesia, located just east of Bali, known for its stunning beaches, clear blue waters, and laid-back vibe. Less crowded than its famous neighbor, Lombok offers a more relaxed atmosphere, perfect for those looking to escape the tourist buzz. The island is home to the majestic Mount Rinjani, Indonesia’s second-highest volcano, which attracts hikers from around the world. With vibrant local culture, charming villages, and excellent surfing and diving spots, Lombok is an ideal destination for adventure and tranquility alike.

*PLEASE NOTE: All participants for the Education, Teaching, Construction, and Turtle Conservation projects, are required to apply for a C6 Social Cultural visa prior to arrival. Participants who have a Visa On Arrival or an E-Visa on Arrival will not be able to participate in these projects. Participants who only attend the culture, adventure, and yoga weeks will be accepted to join the programs with a Visa on Arrival. Going through an online agency or via our local team is the easiest way to obtain the visa. 

  **Exceptions to the C6 visa

Participants can join any program with a Visa on Arrival (VOA) for the following program types:

• 1-week culture week, plus 1 to 3 week volunteer program
• 1-week volunteer program

However, it is important to highlight that participants using a VOA must put 'tourism' for reason of visit.

We still encourage volunteers to arrive with a C6 visa for all programs. Please note that obtaining and using a VOA is entirely the participant's responsibility. We cannot be held accountable for any issues or concerns arising from this, as we are obligated to recommend the appropriate visa type for participants joining volunteering projects.
