About the project

ESC: Volunteering in a school - promotion of languages and cultures

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

We are a Catholic college and high school under contract with the state and created in 1842. It was created by the Marist Fathers in the centre of the town of La Seyne sur mer near Toulon in the Var. The establishment is large with beautiful spaces and it welcomes 1000 students including boarders. Access is easy by public transport and Toulon station is served by the TGV. Marseille, Nice and their airports are easily accessible. La Seyne is on the edge of the Toulon harbour.

💼 What the programme involves

Hors Pistes hosts each year around 30 volunteers in the region of Marseille. The Institution Sainte-Marie is a secondary and high school, based on the coast near marseille. Both volunteers will help language teachers (spanish, english, italian), support for cultural projects and school trips, promote volunteering and youth mobility, facilitate educational, musical and recreational workshops. The tasks may vary from period to period, depending on current projects and skills. Althought the school is a private catholic school, there are no pre-requirements for the application process, and no specific guidelines for the develoment of educational/pedagogical projects. Indeed, most of the pupils don't participate to the catholic classes and have instead dedicated time for cultural/civic/educational workshops.

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).
