HIGH SCHOOL VOLUNTEER GROUPS ABROAD PROGRAMS

Volunteering abroad during high school lets students gain a better understanding of the world, its challenges, and how they can help contribute to making sustainable changes. Our educational school trips abroad are typically 2–3 weeks in length and include opportunities for extensive development, both personally and in skills such as leadership.

All Amani hostel  high school volunteer programs include:

  • volunteer work abroad
  • a customized itinerary
  • 360-degree support, before and after the trip travel with a trusted teacher and a highly qualified expedition leader who will accompany each group
  • a teacher and expedition leader ratio of 1:10
  • adventure and exploration activities such as Kilimanjaro trekking, safaris Tanzania and Zanzibar holidays
  • cultural activities such as cooking classes, learning phrases in the local language or watching traditional dance demonstrations
  • an introduction to the concept of international sustainable development and talks by local subject area experts in areas such as wildlife conservation and community development
    accommodation and three meals a day
  • Transport to and from the airport, and during the rest of the trip.
  • And there are so many other benefits to educational school trips abroad. It allows high school students who are volunteering the opportunity to work collaboratively as part of a team, to better understand the challenges faced by the local community they’re working alongside, and to gain practical experience. Students will also develop soft skills such as leadership, planning, organization, and public speaking. This will enhance their opportunities for education and help them to broaden their career prospects.

This could be helping kids learn through play, or observing doctors in busy hospitals to prepare you for a pre-med track in college.

Group high school volunteer programs provide students with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity – through immersion in another culture and giving back to community projects that match students’ skills or areas of study.

Our high school programs require a ratio of one guardian to every 8 students. Guardians can be teachers/staff or parents that wish to take part in the program.

The Duke of Edinburgh Award is available for application by teens looking to earn their Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award and boost their career prospects. Teens can use their participation in an Amani hostel program to demonstrate competencies in several of the required focus areas, such as volunteering, skills development, physical fitness, completing a program, and having gone on a residential school trip abroad. You can also enhance your personal statement on your UCAS application with the Duke of Edinburgh Award.

For groups looking for more than a high school volunteer program, we have also developed a separate range of service-learning group programs. Service-learning is the combination of classroom learning and theory, with hands-on, in-field experiences.

This allows students to engage with their academic material while performing activities that help address challenges faced by the local community. It is rounded off with periods of reflective learning, which are shown to increase self-awareness and lead to a better understanding of others.

We offer 24-hour support in-country, as well as a 24-hour emergency desk, which is also available to parents. In fact, our expertise in managing young volunteers in international destinations has also secured us British Standards 8848 compliance.
Also, as teachers play such an important role in the success of our school trips abroad, we agree in advance to an expedition leader, teacher and student ratio to give additional peace of mind. This is usually a minimum of one expedition leader assigned to a group of six participants.

We also usually offer one free teacher place per each ten high school students attending the program, and offer pre-departure support with travel logistics and to make sure school groups know what to expect upon arrival and during the program.

We also conduct a teacher webinar where teachers, parents, guardians and chaperones can ask questions and receive feedback from our support coordinators.

All transport during the project, as well as the final airport drop-off, is provided by Amani hostel expedition leaders. In order to seamlessly manage airport arrivals for our groups, we set up instant messaging groups that allow communication between students, teachers, parents, and expedition leaders.

Uniformed Amani hostel expedition leaders meet the group at the airport upon arrival and they are then transported to their accommodation. After this point, all parents receive an email letting them know that their child has arrived safely.
