Modalités d'hébergement, de restauration et de transport
Normally the volunteers live at the boarding school, and therefore it is usually requested, both from volunteers and students, to have common activities. Food is included during the weekdays, in the weekends you are free to arrange your own meals or eat together in the house. This includes arrangements of sport and cultural events like tournaments, movie evenings, exhibitions etc. There are many examples of previous volunteers who have been involved in organising school trips. Since the school has a wide field of activities and many contacts, there are also other opportunities for tasks to do.
