Communication in Tioman
Wireless connection: There is wireless at the resort, however it is unreliable especially when large numbers are using the facilities. It would be a good time to practice limiting or having a break from over the online world.
Emergency contact: There will be daily messages sent back to the school , however, it is best to contact the school and speak to Julie Milligan who will be able to contact us most of the time.
