Long-term volunteer to LEKO Folk High School, Finland

Beschrijving

LEKO is a private educational establishment with an 85-year-long history. It is located in Hirvikoski, a village in a calm and beautiful rural area of South-West Finland. LEKO works in the fields of formal, non-formal education, social work, spiritual work, children’s welfare, and hospitality services locally, regionally, and internationally. The largest group of our full-time students are non-finish national adults learning the Finnish language within the context of upper basic education programs, as well we have integration program for Ukrainian refugees. The volunteer will be a part of our LEKO community and to give a hand, where it is needed the most. The tasks include for example assisting, organizing, and preparing free time activities for non-Finnish residential students and participating in activities at children and youth development welfare centers (for local ones and for non-Finnish) and in LEKO children playgroup. You can also participate in the school's courses.

Regelingen voor accommodatie, eten, en vervoer

We provide to live with other LEKO volunteers, in a shared apartment. There is a food service in the school during working days, with the possibility to pay attention to different diets. The school has bicycles and a car (B driving license preferred). Our work language at school is Finnish, but with the volunteers we use English. LEKO is unobstructed in the study area only, so, unfortunately, we cannot provide a place for a volunteer who is in a wheelchair.

Wie zoeken we?

We are looking for an international volunteer to give our school a stronger EU value and self-development perspective. We are looking for a person with curiosity, self-initiative, and willingness to help, cooperate and lead; to be part of LEKO, Loimaa, and the larger community. The position is suitable for any English-speaking (in the level of conversation) young person aged 18-30. We would be happy if the volunteer enjoyed socializing and doing activities within a multicultural society with tolerance. We hope our volunteer is positive and ready to take on different tasks
