About the project

ESC: Volunterring in the Kindergarten Zwergenland for 10-12 months

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The kindergarten was newly built in 2010. The architectural style with wood reflects the nature pedagogical concept. The kindergarten welcomes 90 children aged 3-6 years in 5 groups of 18 children. Children can use the 5 group rooms with nice relaxing areas on the second floor, a room for sports and other activities, an atelier and a children kitchen. Outside there is a nice area with trees, different play instruments, sand, places to seat and a big terrace which invites playing outside. Children can attend this kindergarten within their third year of life. The volunteer works normally from 8/9 am till 3 p.m. (6 hours). Since 2017 the kindergarten has the capacity to take a few children with special needs. This kindergarten is located on the same territory with another kindergarten for smaller kids, so they both create a big kids' space with two gardens. The task of the volunteer is to support educators in their work and ro help children to explore the world via small activities.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Normally all the volunteers live in shared flats: have their own room but share a kitchen and a bathroom with 3 other volunteers. The monthly allowance includes food & pocket money & money to buy a local transportation monthly ticket and is paid out on the same day of each month. We can arrange an opening of a banking account if you need that. If you stay for 12 months you have 24 holiday days. Instead of a monthly ticket you can buy a bike and sell it by the same price at the end of the service. Leipzig is a nice city to ride a bike. If you wish we can as well try to organize a host family.

🎒 Leisure activities

We will help you find a German language course which fits your needs and level. During the 12-months stay you attend an on-arrival (7 days) and mid-term seminar (5 days), organized by the German National Agency, where you meet other volunteers volunteering in Germany this year. ONLY CANDIDATES FROM THE SPECIFIED COUNTRIES CAN APPLY!
