📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
One of the most important fields in work with children in our Kindergarten is to increase their awareness of the fact that they are not alone in Europe, in the world. That they should be aware of other countries, different cultures and different styles of life. We want to increase this sensitivity in our children so they can respect differences and be responsible for the future of Europe. That's why it is relevant that children in our kindergarten can be in touch with volunteers from different countries, that they can cooperate with them every day. But the benefits coming from EVS projects are meaningful not only for children but also for the entire kindergarten, for staff, for parents, and also for the volunteer itself.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Accommodation will be provided by Coordinating Organisation(STRIM): Volunteers will live with other volunteers in the apartment. They will share the room with other volunteers outside of the city center. The kitchen and bathroom will be shared with other flatmates. The room will be equipped with basic furniture and kitchen equipment. They don’t need to bring their own things, like cutlery, plates bed-cloths etc. Local transport will be provided by STRIM: Volunteer will get the bus and tram card for all the lines accessible in Krakow
🎒 Leisure activities
Taking care o safety in the work environment our kindergarten organizes, just after the arrival of the volunteer, special training about safety. Person who will be working for us will be controlled by the group teacher. We will try to avoid critical situations on a daily basis. Director of the kindergarten and project coordinator will keep watch on this. The project coordinator will organized volunteers after work time. Volunteer will be invited for workshops meetings on the pedagogical committee and meetings of the whole personnel of the kindergarten.
⚠️ Requirements
The Participant profile: We search for volunteers that are motivated and willing to dedicate their work to children. We do not expect the volunteers to have a lot of previous experience in work with children. From experience, we know that motivation is more important than experience in this kind of work. Work in the kindergarten can be demanding - children do not speak foreign languages and they can be a time-consuming and demanding group to take care of. We need volunteers that like working with children (from 3 to 6 years old) and who can show their own initiative and lead some activities.
Deadline: Application deadline: 12/09/2022
