Of we went to Hambantota. Six hours ride each way. An hour or two to get to some where from the hotel. What an exhausting trip. Our aim for this WWW was to:
- Explore or learning outside classes (Visiting the new harbour in Hambantota funded by China, Whole day Safari at Yala) Engaged with issues of global importance
- Provide community and service to a primary school (Painting, renewing most of the play ground in the school) Planned and initiated activities
- Open up the views of other local area in Sri Lanka (Interacting with kids, the exchange mini concert at the primary school, travelling along two sides of rural Sri Lanka) Shown perseverance and commitment in their activities
- Learn how to live in different community in different place (Living with a whole bunch of people for 5 days)Worked collaboratively with others
There were two major words that we had settled to make this all work
Community & Consideration
After 5 days of WWW'11, we've achieved all of the goals we had set earlier. The whole grade 11 of Overseas School managed to learn, explore, provide, give and take all the experiences throughout this trip. Even though, this is the last Week Without Wall, we made it memorable and gladly enjoyed all the hard work and every sweat we put down.
