School In Paradise

School in Paradise is one of the non-profit organizations dedicated to the education of children and youth on the island of Lombok, Indonesia. We have been operating in Lombok since 2013 when we started a school construction project in Petiwung. We are currently working extensively with several local entities, focusing mainly on covering English language classes. We strive to continuously improve the quality of English teaching and enable children to choose their own future. We are also actively seeking potential local partners interested in collaborating and improving the quality of education. The association was founded in 2016 by Andrea Stárková, Marcel Žitník and Filip Žitník. Andrea provided on-site teaching, facilitated volunteers’ contact with local partners, organized various events for children and actively searched for localities interested in cooperation. She also taught in the selected schools and courses. Filip and Marcel Žitníkovi from the Go2 Travel Agency provide financial resources for the training and deal with organisational issues related to the running of the organisation.
