A highlight for me was playing and dancing with the kids on the kinder.

My advice for future volunteers is that everyone is super friendly and the volunteer work is so rewarding! I am so grateful for this opportunity and I am going to miss the children from the kinder and the locals playing sport.

I started off my volunteering experience with the introduction week which I would highly recommend everyone to take part in. T...
