IKAN
Welcome to Ikatan Australia – Nusantara (IKAN)
Situs internet yang bertujuan untuk menjadi perantara antara mahasiswa Indonesia dan guru Bahasa Indonesia di Victoria. Kalau tertarik menjadi sukarelawan di ruang kelas SD/SMP/SMA bahasa Indonesia di Australia, silakan baca informasi di bawah.
A joint initiative between PPIA-Vic and IKAN
To register your interest
send Suzannah and Bianca an email describing why you’d like to volunteer with IKAN. Once accepted you will be sent information about how to officially register your details on the IKAN wikispace.
Email: ikan@ppia-vic.org
If you register on IKAN and volunteer you will:
- motivate young Australians to learn about Indonesia
- give them an opportunity to practice speaking Indonesian with a native speaker
- develop your communication skills and broaden your experiences in Australia
- have heaps of fun and make new friends.
To volunteer you must:
- liaise with the Indonesian teacher to organise your visit to the school
- be available during school hours: Mon-Fri, 8.30-3.30pm
- organise your own transport
- be punctual and organised because schools run on tight schedules
- enjoy and be confident speaking with primary and secondary students
- be flexible
- regularly check the IKAN site and update your details if they change
How it works:
- The IKAN wikispace is a database of contact details.
- Once you are registered, Indonesian teachers will email you and ask for your help. EXAMPLE:
Dear Bianca ,
Hi, my name is Suzannah. I teach Indonesian and I found your email address on the IKAN website. Would you be available to come and do a workshop with my yr 10 students about Indonesian pop music? They are learning about different types of music in Indonesia, maybe you could tell them about your favourite bands and show them a Video Clip. Do you have any other ideas? Part of the workshop will be in English, but I’d also like the students to interview you in Indonesian … and your friends if you want to bring someone with you.
My classes are at these times … are you available?
Tues 4th March: 11.35 – 12.55pm
Fri 7th March: 8.45 – 10.05am
Terima kasih banyak,
Suzannah

- The activities and times will always be different because it depends on the school and the age group.
- The number of emails you receive will depend on whether teachers need volunteers. If you are keen to get experience at a school, please be proactive and contact the teachers listed on the site to offer your help.

aku pengen, tapi englishnya masih belum cukup memadai
I want to join this activity, because it is a media to introduce Indonesia to many young generation who come from diffrent countries who live in OZ. I am a teacher and I hope I can get new experience in teaching here.
terima kasih banyak atas ketertarikannya kepada IKAN! Tolong kirim email ke ikan@ppia-vic.org, supaya Bianca dan saya bisa memberi informasi lebih lanjut. Ada website khusus IKAN di mana mahasiswa Indonesia harus mendaftarkan diri kalau benar-benar tertarik dan punya waktu bebas untuk mengunjungi sekolah-sekolah.
Galih – this is the perfect opportunity for you to practice your English with Australians
Count me in please. I really love to join this activity ^_^

Hi, I’m Tika. I’m interested in joining IKAN and work as a volunteer Bahasa Indonesia teacher since I need to get some experience of teaching language here as I believe that it would be very helpful & useful for my current work when I return to Indonesia. In addition, I’ll also be very happy to share my knowledge & skills in Bahasa Indonesia to Oz people here.
Hi Tika. Thanks for your interests about our IKAN site. If you would like to join IKAN, please send us an email and describe few words about why you want to join and your availabilities to ikan@ppia-vic.org
Thanks
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am interested in the IKAN community and would like to join with the activities especially to introduce or to speak about Indonesia in my bahasa Indonesia. I saw the IKAN website could accomodate the people who want to improve their language skill, develop their ability to handle such as classroom discussion about many things in bahasa Indonesia and I hope it could encourage me to present a topic in front of the audience.
My name is Rozia Halisia and I am a student of LaTrobe Uni campus in Bundoora, faculty of Education and the subject is Educational Management and Leadership.
I am happy if you could send me an information about the next topic that I can contribute in your school activities. Thank you.
Best regards,
Rozia Halisia
