How Much?  $2300 which includes. All airfares, accommodation, food, day trip, travel insurance from Brisbane. Price may increase subject to air fare increases.

How do we get there? Fly just 3 hours direct into Munda International Airport, then a half hour ride on a 4X4 to the training centre campus.

What is the accommodation like? There is basic western style housing, with showers and flushing toilets! Accommodation will be shared bedrooms. Food will be mostly Western Style with a Pacific flavour. Ceiling fans in each room, sorry no A/C.

Who is in running it? Wesleyan World Missions, the Missions arm of the Wesleyan Methodist Church of Australia is hosting the team, with two ordained Youth Pastors (one male one female) leading and travelling with the team from Brisbane. Both have been before and have many years experience in youth ministry.

I am still under 18 in November, is that a problem? travelling out of the country as a minor is not a problem when one of the leaders is appointed by your parents as their guardian for the duration of the trip. We have forms to be signed and witnessed by a JP if this is the case.

What else should I know? That this will be a fun, challenging, and rewarding experience, unlike anything you may have done before, as you live and learn with fellow school leavers, and as you discover how some of our closest neighbours live their faith in their world.

What do I do to register? We have an online registration form here, and you will also need two referees (not related to you), to complete these forms.

Then if you don’t have passport that is valid for 6 months after the 1st December 2024 then work on getting your passport sorted and get ready to pay your first instalment of $1000 to confirm your flights and booking after your registration is accepted.

There are limited spaces so it will be first in with payments, and priority given to year 12 leavers.
