About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

In the facility „Wellenreiter” children and their parents find support developing a positive family life. Ten boys and girls aged six to twelve are arriving after school and stay until 6 p.m. Monday to Wednesday. On Thursdays and Fridays, the pedagogical staff is available for the families for training and discussions. The goals include promotion of the child‘s personality development, the parenting skills, the social competences of all family members and strengthening the family to cope with everyday life. Your task is to assist professionals along daily activities and individual support measures. You motivate kids to participate in activities, provide help with homework, and promote individual and group-based activities. You have the opportunity to initiate projects and leisure time activities according to the kids and your own interests – you are very welcome to bring in your own ideas! Household tasks include preparing the group room and preparing meals.

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).
