Kindergarten Jorinde & Joringel in Berlin: Early Childhood Education in a Binational Environment
ICJA - FREIWILLIGENAUSTAUSCH WELTWEIT EV
Stiftung Pro Gemeinsinn
Berlin, Germania
Descriere
“Pro Gemeinsinn” foundation is a non-profit association, focusing on early childhood education and after-school care, with currently 220 employees. The aim is to create a positive environment for children from 1 to 12 years for them to flourish, learn, enjoy and grow and to feel like important members of the society. We care for 92 children between 1 and 6 years in two houses. We work in mainly age-homogeneous groups. During walks and on our two playgrounds, the children play with each other mixed in age. It’s important to us, that the children in our care grow up with the language and culture of our neighboring countries. We practice the immersion method: during their day to day life the children hear both languages (German and Polish) and additionally learn the languages naturally. Since Berlin is a melting pot of cultures, it is of highest importance to us, to work alongside young volunteers like you, to represent a divers and versatile Europe within our facilities.
