About the project

ESC: Kaunas Waldorf school

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Join a meaningful long-term volunteering opportunity at Kaunas Waldorf School in Lithuania! As a volunteer, you will support children’s learning both in the classroom and during after-school activities. Your tasks may include assisting teachers, helping children with special needs, and leading or co-leading creative, artistic, or movement-based sessions. This is a great chance to explore the Waldorf educational approach, develop experience in a supportive school environment, and contribute to a community that values holistic, child-centered learning. Volunteers will be guided by experienced staff and encouraged to bring their own ideas and talents into the process.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers will live in a shared apartment within walking distance of the school, making the daily commute easy and environmentally friendly. A monthly food allowance will be provided. There is also an option to purchase fresh, healthy meals at the school canteen, which is known for its high-quality and nutritious food as wel as good prices.

🎒 Leisure activities

Volunteers will take part in On-Arrival and Mid-Term Trainings organized by the National Agency, focusing on intercultural learning, project goals, and personal development. Additionally support organization will provide a Youth Leaders Training, covering topics such as group dynamics, lydership and other non formal skills. Volunteers will also participate in monthly reflection and support meetings, creating space to share experiences, receive guidance, and grow both personally and as part of a team.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We are looking for a motivated, open-minded volunteer who enjoys working with children and is interested in alternative education, especially the Waldorf/Steiner approach. This opportunity is ideal for someone who is patient, empathetic, and willing to support both individual learners and groups, including children with special needs. An interest in creative activities, arts, music, or movement is a big plus, as well as a willingness to learn and take initiative. No formal teaching experience is required—just a genuine curiosity, responsibility, and a warm, supportive attitude.
Deadline: 15/09/2025 00:00

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
