My Travel Story

After finishing my Year 12 studies I have decided to spend my energies taking part in the positive impact school leavers program, ‘Schoolies Unearthed’. The company I have selected, Antipodeans (www.antipodeans.com.au), is intent on changing the face of ‘Schoolies’ through their school leavers program to developing countries.
On December 1 this year I will travel to Borneo. Our group will spend several days in a remote community teaching games and English to young children in the community, while also exploring other sites in the area. All of Antipodeans’ community projects are products of consultative work with the locals who are directly affected by the work. Antipodeans is also one of the first school-based companies to be accepted as a signatory to the UN Global Impact Statement. Sacred Heart College has endorsed the organisation.
