Volontariato alla Scuola alternativa Im Pfeifferhof
Associazione Antigóna
Schule Pfeifferhof
Graz, Avstrija
Opis
The alternative Schule im Pfeifferhof is a non-profit institution initiated by parents for their children in 1993. The school works according to reform-pedagogical principles (Montessori, Piaget), which means that the work is oriented at the needs and wishes of children. The learning methods are based on “practical” work and projects, and the main principle of the school is “learning by doing”: living their own experiences, the children can both acquire cultural techniques and develop social competences. They also learn to handle rules and borders in a democratic way. You will be part of the intercultural dimension of the school, and will assist the teachers both in everyday school activities and after-school care. There is a wide range of creative educational possibilities to be explored, such as arts, sports, music, dance, theatre, games, but also talking about your country and people.
