📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
The Trebnitz Castle (Schloí Trebnitz e.V.) is an educational and meeting place with a political and cultural profile and a focus on international exchange projects, especially with Eastern Europe. The castle is located about 70 km from Berlin and 30 km from the Polish border. The educational offer is mainly aimed at children and young people, but there are also seminars and further training courses for adults. For many years now, a holiday for children and young people from the region and Poland, whose parents often cannot afford to travel, has taken place during the summer holidays. The workcamp is intended to make different cultures experienceable for the children.
💼 What the programme involves
Free time activities for the children and young people on 7 days, e.g. in the form of various creative workshops, games, sports and leisure activities, which the SCI volunteers will prepare and carry out for the children in small groups during the first 3 days of the camp. The project will take place in cooperation with the Gustav Seitz Museum, which is located on the castle grounds.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Accommodation in the castle in shared rooms. Catering by the local house kitchen. In the evenings and on weekends, it is also possible to barbecue together, have a campfire and bake in the clay oven. The current pandemic protection regulations valid in Brandenburg/Germany will be followed for room and meals and for the type of programme. You will be informed more detailed before the camp about the concrete details.
