About The Package
Under this program, we provide programe placement in rural childcare centers which serves as Kindergarten as well. Since the placement is in rural area there are very few experience care takers hence volunteers role become very important. Local people will also appreciate your help and you will be very welcomed by these people.
The children at the placement are aged between 3 - 5 years and there are around 30 - 40 students in one classroom. These kids are basically from poor families and volunteers time and love will surely help them.
Volunteers can play with them, teach them English, Maths or general knowledge or decorate their class room. Volunteers work Monday to Friday 5 days a week.
Upon arrival at Cusco International Airport you will be greeted by our representative who would take you to the accommodaiton. On this day, you can relax or take a walk around your accommodation.
