At 7:30 am we were in the ferry headed to Saboga!!!! The ferry was an hour and 30 mins on calm waters. It was a very pleasant ride to Saboga! Once we got to Saboga we got into our houses and planned out the activities to teach that first day! After a few hours of relaxing and planning we headed for the school on a trail. When we arrived the kids were super excited and we started teaching the minute we walked in. We all separated into groups in my classroom and I got a super fun/funny group to teach and to do fun activities with! It was so nice to meet all the kids and get to know them. I am super excited that I got this opportunity to teach the kids.
The Community School of Naples Middle School is off on an adventure to Central America. This service-learning trip is a passion project for Jimmi Stevens, Spanish teacher and Conservation Club sponsor. Participants will teach English on the remote island of Saboga, Panama. They will also volunteer in the community. Travelers will enjoy whale-watching, swimming, snorkeling and hiking. In Panama City they will tour the Panama Canal and the beautiful, antique neighborhood of Casco Viejo.
