Year 12 Kontum Expedition

Welcome to the Year 12 Kontum Expedition Website

Overview

• Kontum is a town in the Central Highlands of Vietnam that BIS have a long association with. Over the years we have built an educational centre and a homestay facility, improved the facilities of three orphanages and provided educational and employment opportunities for young people living in poverty. 

During our expedition, we will be involved in many activities as we plan and then deliver activity sessions to students at four orphanages. 

There will also be a guided tour of Kontum and a visit to the museum, a walking tour of three villages and a one-day jungle, mountain and riverside hike, starting at the village of Konkotu and finishing at our hotel. This is quite challenging for some of our students, but also extremely memorable and beautiful.
