九年级学生在坦桑尼亚的赋能和成长之旅

年轻的远行，不曾有“挥手自兹去，萧萧班马鸣”的悲怆，而总是充满着“大鹏一日同风起，扶摇直上九万里” 的豪迈。

每年，全球大约有2000名诺校学生前往我们位于坦桑尼亚阿鲁沙的营地，从事建设和维护学校与村庄住宿的实际任务。

学生通过参与当地社区服务工作培养全球公民意识，同时了解可持续发展的意义和如何保护环境。

2023年11月，深圳市龙华区诺德双语学校的九年级学生—— Janna、Bonnie、Cathy 和 Jerry 踏上了一次变革性的探险之旅，揭开了坦桑尼亚的神秘面纱。在梅鲁山郁郁葱葱的山坡和塔兰吉雷国家公园生机勃勃的环境中，这次旅程不仅是一次探险，更是一次影响和赋能成长的旅程。

EMPOWERING CHANGE

在坦桑尼亚之旅中，学生的任务不仅仅是探险，还包括创造积极变革。在多利布什小学，他们为可持续发展做出了积极贡献—— 为学校教室打地基，为一个新的活动浴室铺砖，还在当地一户人家安装了太阳能系统，建造了羊舍和无烟炉，为社区留下了不可磨灭的印记。

REFLECTING ON IMPACT

当 Janna、Bonnie、Cathy 和 Jerry 回忆起他们的探险经历时，这不仅仅是美好的记忆，更是他们个人成长历程中的重要篇章。它不仅仅是一次旅行，而是一次镌刻于生命中的经历，它塑造了学生们看待世界的全新视角，并通过一个个服务项目，让孩子们为建设更美好的世界做出了贡献。

在坦桑尼亚的一周让我了解了世界，尤其是联合国的17个可持续发展目标。以前，我不知道一个国家会有多贫穷。这次考察让我看到了志愿者工作和非政府组织服务的价值。这次经历让我大开眼界，让我体会到发挥积极影响的重要性。

-- Jerry

这次坦桑尼亚之行对我意义重大。刚到坦桑尼亚时，我看到的是一大片草原，牛羊成群。我最喜欢的是野生动物园之旅—— 我们看到了很多大象，它们好像在跟我们打招呼。我还喜欢帮助当地的孩子，他们很可爱。我希望能有更多的人去看看那里的神奇事物。来到这里之前，我以为那里的孩子上不了学，或者学费太贵。在这次旅行中，我了解到学校是免费的，但设施很陈旧。旅行结束后，我才知道那里的孩子为了学习付出了巨大的努力，这让我更加珍惜自己的生活。

-- Janna

去坦桑尼亚之前，我以为那是一个非常贫穷的国家。虽然事实的确如此，但当我到了那里，我发现虽然那里经济落后，但人们都很热情友好。在那里住了几天后，我越来越珍惜我的生活。

DISCOVERING TANZANIA: A JOURNEY OF IMPACT AND EMPOWERMENT

A young man's journey is always full of the grandeur of "the roc (mythical bird of prey) rises with the wind one day, lifting itself up 90,000 miles".

Each year, around 2,000 NAE students across the globe will gather at our camp in Arusha, Tanzania for helping construct a local school and improving the village living conditions.

This expedition nurtures global citizenship through service work with the local community. Students engage in construction programmes with the local village whilst learning about sustainable development and the environment.

In November 2023, NAS Shenzhen’s G9 students—Janna, Bonnie, Cathy, and Jerry—embarked on a transformative expedition, unraveling the wonders of Tanzania. Against the backdrop of Mount Meru's lush slopes and the vibrant biodiversity of Tarangire National Park, this journey went beyond adventure—it was a celebration of impact and empowerment.

EMPOWERING CHANGE

Their mission extended beyond exploration; it was about crafting a legacy of positive change. At Dolly Bush Primary School, they actively contributed to sustainable development—laying the foundations for a classroom, bricks for a new ablution, and at a local family’s home they installed a solar system, built a goat shed, and a smokeless stove, leaving an indelible mark on the community.

REFLECTING ON IMPACT

As Janna, Bonnie, Cathy, and Jerry reflect on their empowering adventure, they celebrate more than memories; they celebrate a pivotal chapter in their personal narratives. This journey with Nord Anglia Education wasn't just a trip—it was a profound experience that shaped their perspectives and contributed to a better world, one service project at a time.

Spending a week in Tanzania taught me a lot about the world, especially the United Nations' 17 sustainable goals. Before, I didn't know how poor a country could be. The expedition showed me the value of volunteer work and NGO services. It was an eye-opening experience that made me appreciate the importance of making a positive impact.

-- Jerry

This trip to Tanzania meant a lot to me. When I first arrived, I saw a big grassland with sheep and cows. The safari trip was my favorite – we saw many elephants that seemed to say hello. I also enjoyed helping local children; they are cute. I wish more people could go and see the amazing things there. Before the trip, I thought children there couldn't go to school or it was too expensive. During the trip, I learned that school was free but the facilities were old. We worked together to make a table for them. After the trip, I realized how hard the children there work to study, making me value my life more.

-- Janna

Before I went to Tanzania, I thought it was a very poor country. While that's true, when I got there, I found that even though there is poverty, the people are warm and friendly. After staying there for a few days, I appreciated my life more and more.
