    À propos du programme

    In Thailand, early childhood education and childcare programs have gained significant importance in recent years. With the government’s push to improve educational access for all children, the demand for high-quality kindergarten and childcare services has grown. These programs not only offer a safe and supportive environment for children but also play an essential role in their overall development.

    A key factor driving the rising demand for kindergarten and childcare services in Thailand is the focus on early childhood education. Studies have shown that the first five years of a child’s life are critical for cognitive, social, and emotional growth. As a result, enrolling children in a quality program during these formative years can have a lasting influence on their academic success.
    During your time in the kindergarten/childcare program, you will be working with children aged 2 to 5 years old at a local children’s development centre/kindergarten in Koh Samui. Your working hours will be from 08:30 AM to 11:30 AM, four hours each morning.

    There is currently a teacher shortage at many kindergartens and childcare facilities in Koh Samui, with some classrooms accommodating up to 30 children. This makes it difficult for a single teacher to give each child the attention they need.

    Your role will be vital in assisting local teachers and offering support in the classroom. Through activities like songs, dances, games, and repetition exercises, you will help young children engage with and enjoy basic educational concepts.
    Additionally, you may help supervise the children’s meals, play with them, organize events, and occasionally assist with cleaning duties. You may also be involved in basic hygiene tasks, such as brushing hair, trimming nails, and assisting with feeding and caring for the children.

    Your support will also give local Thai teachers—many of whom are not fluent in English—the opportunity to practice English with the children. Exposing young learners to different accents and pronunciations early on will help them better understand and speak English, building their confidence in interacting with foreigners.

    Location

    Koh Samui is a beautiful island in the Gulf of Thailand, famous for its white-sand beaches, palm-fringed coastlines, and relaxed island atmosphere. Known for its friendly locals and rich cultural heritage, the island offers a unique blend of natural beauty and vibrant traditions. As a volunteer destination, Koh Samui provides an inspiring environment where you can contribute to the community while experiencing authentic Thai culture.

    Project Tasks

    • Engage with local children and introduce them to basic English.
    • Gain hands-on experience in teaching young children.
    • Assist and support local teachers and staff in creating an enriching learning environment.
    • Thailand Digital Arrival Card
      • All incoming passengers are required to submit the Thailand Digital Arrival Card via this link: tdac.immigration.go.th. The system has changed from paper to digital submission. For more information, please review the link.

    Secret Buddha Garden (Magic Garden)
    Hidden within Koh Samui’s lush hills, the Secret Buddha Garden is an enchanting site featuring stone sculptures of Buddha, animals, and mythical beings surrounded by waterfalls. Created by local farmer Nim Thongsuk, this serene garden serves as both an artful sanctuary and his final resting place.

    Na Muang Waterfall
    Located in Koh Samui’s mountainous interior, Na Muang Waterfall has two tiers: an easily accessible lower tier with a natural pool, and a higher, more secluded spot reached by a 30-minute hike. Surrounded by dense jungle, this free-access site is a favourite for visitors seeking a refreshing retreat.

    Koh Tan (Koh Taen)
    Just three miles south of Koh Samui, Koh Tan (also known as Koh Taen or Coral Island) offers tranquil beaches, mangrove forests, and diverse coral reefs ideal for snorkelling. With no cars and only around 30 residents, the island gives visitors a glimpse of traditional Thai island life.

    Transfert de l'aéroport Koh Samui Airport

    Programs begin every Monday, and volunteers are required to arrive the day prior, for orientation before the project. Your accommodation on the Sunday is included in the program fees. 

    A free airport pickup is included when arriving to Koh Samui (USM) Airport. You must arrive between 08.00 and 17:00 on Sunday.

    If arriving outside the pickup times, you can book a private transfer and any extra nights accommodation for an extra fee.

    Alternatively, if arriving early you could wait at the arrival’s terminal for the pickup time, book accommodation at the airport and meet us during the pickup times or make your own way to the project (we will advise on how to do this). 

    From the airport to the accommodation in Koh Sammi, it takes around 1 hour. 

    Logement

    You will stay at the volunteer accommodation which has shared dorm rooms of 4-8 people (single gender). The accommodation has fans, air-con, wifi, hot showers and bed linen. For laundry you can hand wash or use a laundry facility in town. There is also a swimming pool and spacious living areas for relaxation.

    While we do our best to accommodate our participants, what we provide for most meals is local cuisine. If you are a picky eater, have dietary restrictions, or if you think that you will not be satisfied with the local dishes provided, you might want to consider supplementing our menu with Western-type foods and snacks that are more to your liking.
