We are thrilled to announce our upcoming program in the Philippines. Our location of choice is strategically situated in Cavite, just south of Manila. This offers the convenience of being close to the international airport while providing a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.
We are especially thrilled about our collaboration with OzPhil College of Cavite Inc. They will not only host our teacher placements but also arrange tours to nearby public schools with whom they maintain close affiliations. On our dedicated Professional Development workshop day, we will eagerly exchange expertise and insights with local educators, fostering a mutually enriching experience.
During this immersive experience, participants will enjoy a week-long stay at a local hotel with resort facilities. Following each day's school placement, you'll have your afternoons free to unwind and partake in a variety of activities. Whether you prefer lounging by the pool, exploring nearby shopping centres, treating yourself to a rejuvenating massage, or even teeing off for a round of golf, the options are plentiful.
Following our educational endeavours, the team will embark on an exciting journey to the enchanting Cebu region. Here, two full days of captivating excursions await, allowing our team to immerse themselves in the beauty and culture of Cebu before returning to Manila. These days will include a half-day city tour of Cebu and a full-day tour to Oslob. In Oslob, we will have the incredible opportunity to experience a whale shark encounter, visit Sumilon Island, and explore a stunning waterfall.
Our upcoming Philippines program in 2024 promises to be a fulfilling and memorable experience, combining meaningful work with exploration and cultural immersion in a truly remarkable setting.
