My school is offering us the opportunity to go to Borneo for a month in the spring of 2017. During this time we will help to build classrooms, install and maintain fresh water supplies and help manage the local forestation. The money needed to go on this trip will be split between wages for local workers helping us with the projects, travel costs, kit and supplies needed for the projects. The trip costs £4000 and will really benefit the local community. This would be a great opportunity for me and would really help me to learn about the different cultures.
