ESC: Voluntary service in a school in France (Strasbourg)

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Le Gymnase Jean Sturm abrite à la fois un collège et un lycée. C’est l’une des plus anciennes écoles de Strasbourg puisqu’elle a été créée en 1538. Aujourd’hui, il scolarise près de 1100 élèves (de 14 à 18 ans). En accord avec les termes du contrat qui le lie à l'Education Nationale, il transmet des savoirs et des savoirs-faire indispensables à l'épanouissement progressif de l'individu, à son insertion dans la vie professionnelle et à sa participation active à la vie sociale. Il est un lieu d'échanges et de débats où la formation est assurée dans le respect des compétences et des fonctions de chacun. Aussi, l’établissement encourage : - les initiatives des élèves (travail de recherche ou en équipe) - la connaissance du milieu régional (histoire, traditions…) et de l’environnement. Des visites et des contacts avec le monde du travail facilitent l’orientation, - des voyages préparés par les élèves (en France ou à l’étranger), - l’ouverture au monde (échanges avec l’étranger, séjours linguistiques…) et l’accueil des élèves étrangers. Une attention particulière est accordée aux contacts avec le Tiers-Monde. Les professeurs sont essentiellement en charge de la transmission des savoirs. La transmission des repères et des valeurs passe par l'énoncé de ces bases et par leur mise en pratique dans la vie quotidienne. L'équipe de la vie scolaire s'investit précisément dans ce domaine. Elle est composée d'animateurs-éducateurs qui interviennent particulièrement dans les lieux de vie de l'établissement scolaire. Cette équipe souhaite s'enrichir de sensibilités culturelles différentes pour ouvrir l'esprit des élèves, leur faire vivre concrètement la dimension européenne.

💼 What the programme involves

The project takes place in a private junior high school located in Strasbourg. The volunteer will join a team dedicated to supporting and creating activities for the students. The weekly schedule ranges from Monday morning to Friday evening and is based on a 33-hours- week, with a break during the day and with wednesday afternoon off. A typical week may be: - a time of presence and dialogue in the students’ living areas - leading workshops and activities according to the volunteer’s interests (danse, theater, drawings, debates, ceramics, cooking ect..) - participation in outings - team meetings and organization times

🏠 Accommodation on site

They will share the kitchen, living and dining-room, bathroom but will have an individual bedroom. They will have to follow the rules in force in the hosting institution. Due to accomodation facility rules, this project is open to women only. Food and accommodation will be provided to the volunteer by the school

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).
