A word from our In-Country Agent in India

Written by Antipodeans Abroad IN-Country Agent – India

I am writing to update you on how the new Antipodean Group have settled in. I am pleased to let you know that Emily and Charlotte are embracing the program wholeheartedly. Both have now completed their orientation and have begun their work in a local aanganbari (day care centre), which they are enjoying greatly. In addition the girls are working in our local evening school project with the street children from our immediate community.

Both have settled in well with the other volunteers and in particular have made friends with 2 other girls who commenced the program at around the same time. Currently the girls are working hard and in their free time are enjoying exploring Udaipur City.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the comprehensive pre-departure work that you have undertaken. It is evident that the girls had been excellently briefed in advance of their arrival and consequently were very well prepared for all aspects of the program. This pre-work has really assisted them to settle in.

Kind regards
