About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The Freie Waldorfschule Touler Straße is the oldest Waldorf School in Bremen and has around 400 students. In your ESC year, you will work in the after-school care centre, which is attended by the children in grades 1 to 4 after class (age 6 to 10). The after-school care centre has its own building with a large outdoor area. The focus here is on playing together, you might do as well homework supervision or have lunch with the kids, depending on your position in the team. Our after-school care team consists of 3 pedagogical specialists and 3 volunteers. It is also possible to contribute your skills and interests in a second work area, e.g. in support with social media activities or events. Each week, you will meet your mentor and discuss your learning outcomes, goals, ideas and possible problems.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be accommodated in a flat or a house in Bremen with 4 other ESC volunteers. You will have your private bedroom and share the kitchen, bathroom and other spaces in the flat/house with other volunteers. As an ESC volunteer, you will receive health insurance, monthly pocket money for food and other expenses (290€ + 210€). Travel costs will be reimbursed depending on the travel distance (normally between 210-395€).

🎒 Leisure activities

You will be supported by a Coordinator and a Mentor to help you get settled in your work place and the city of Bremen. You can also attend our German conversation class of at least 1 hour per week, and use the OLS Language Tool to learn German online independently. You will attend the On-Arrival and Midterm Training provided by the German National Agency for all volunteers in Germany - two exciting seminars that will help you find your feet as a volunteer, to plan your learning journey, and to make connections with other international volunteers.

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).
