Build the second Peduli Learning Center in Bali

Dear Supporters,

February has been a month of growth, confidence, and leadership at Peduli Learning Center. Because of you, our children continue to learn not only English and academic subjects but also confidence, communication skills, and leadership.

Story of the Month: Lavi’s Brave Voice

This month, we would like to share the story of Lavi, a 12 year old student who found the courage to speak in front of others about the beauty of Bali.

At the beginning of the month, students were asked to prepare a short presentation in English. Lavi chose to talk about Bali, its culture, nature, and traditions. At first, she felt nervous. Speaking in front of many people was not easy for her.

She practiced every week. She learned how to pronounce new words, how to stand confidently, and how to speak clearly. With support from teachers and volunteers, she slowly became more confident.

When the presentation day came, Lavi stood in front of her friends and spoke about the beauty of Bali, the mountains, the beaches, the ceremonies, and the strong community spirit. Her voice was steady. She finished her presentation with a smile, and her classmates applauded her effort.

Afterward, she said,
“I feel proud because I can share about Bali in English.”

That moment was more than just a presentation. It was a step toward confidence, leadership, and believing in herself.

This is possible because of your support.

• Update about our project

In November, Peduli Learning Center continued to provide consistent academic and emotional support for our students. Our classes focused on strengthening literacy, numeracy, and communication skills, while also ensuring that students felt safe, engaged, and motivated in their learning environment. Teachers emphasized routines, encouragement, and interactive methods to maintain high participation throughout the month.

This month, we were grateful to welcome many volunteers who brought fresh perspectives and new learning experiences for the children. Their presence added variety to our weekly activities and helped expose students to skills and knowledge beyond the regular classroom lessons.

One volunteer introduced the students to basic concepts of architecture, guiding them to explore shapes, structures, and simple building designs through hands-on mini activities. Another volunteer led a session on emotions, helping students identify different feelings, express them appropriately, and understand how emotions shape communication and relationships.

We also had an engaging cultural session where a volunteer taught the children the Haka dance. Students enjoyed learning the movements, rhythm, and expression behind this traditional performance. These volunteer-led sessions created an exciting learning atmosphere in November, and we are deeply grateful for the support that continues to enrich our program and inspire our students.
