ESC: Teaching and Care in After School Clubs 2.0

These are the tasks of the volunteers:

Plan, organize, and facilitate different After School Club activities for disadvantaged children in the surrounding villages, with a focus on non-formal and informal learning activities outside of school.
Collect or even produce the tools used for non-formal activities with children.
Study the importance of games and conformal activities and their effect on children.
Take pictures and videos during the activities and create short posts on the social media pages.

Volunteers will support kids in villages surrounding Miercurea Ciuc by mentoring and facilitating various non-formal and informal learning activities. These activities will take place in 6 different After School Clubs located in villages such as Ciceu, Delnița, Bancu, Șoimeni, Păuleni-Ciuc, and Cetățuia. Each club typically accommodates between 10-30 kids, providing them with a cooked lunch, often their only proper meal of the day, and ensuring their safety in secure learning environments.

Four volunteers will work with approximately 150 kids weekly, with activities lasting between 3 and 4 hours. The frequency of visits will be tailored to the specific needs of each After School Club, considering factors such as the number of kids and the need for support.

Volunteers will facilitate a variety of activities, including homework assistance, non-formal English teaching, games-based learning, emotional support, role modeling, and improving life and social competencies. They will engage children in both indoor and outdoor games, fostering skills such as responsibility, teamwork, resilience, and social integration.
