HOME BASE INDONESIA
In July Time workshops have been given to teachers
in Java and Bali.
The 36 Indonesian Time schools are setting up many
local activities on the topic cultural heritage.
With the recent disaster in Bali, the already very
active Indonesian schools have an even stronger
urge to connect to the world and tell their story.
Read their tales and ‘meet’ them on
the Time
discussion forums and netmeetings.
