The resort is run by our partner TCDF, whose profits support local students with special and diverse needs.

Itinerary

Your 10-day journey

Arrive in Ranong by flight from Bangkok or by bus from Phuket, then transfer to the Eco-Logic Resort. Participants need to arrive a day early in Bangkok or Phuket to connect, and an extra night there is provided if needed. Once settled, the team gathers for a welcome and orientation.
Five mornings from 8am to noon in local schools, working through observation, modelling, lesson planning, reflection and feedback with the support of fellow participants and a Team Leader who moves between schools. Afternoons are for debriefing and collaboration, alongside jungle walks, river swims and the included yoga, Thai massage and cooking lesson.
As a team, design and deliver a professional development workshop for local teachers at the nearby TCDF school.
Two nights in the nearby city of Ranong, with two full days of cultural and nature-based excursions — natural hot springs, mountain temples, night markets and the Andaman coastline.
After breakfast, transfer to the local airport for onward travel. Participants joining the optional Phuket extension travel south by private bus instead, as outlined in the extension itinerary.
