Volunteering in our small towns in Slovenia
OSNOVNA SOLA PRESTRANEK
Prestranek, Slovenya
Description
Volunteers will work in schools and a youth center, engaging with children through workshops. They will assist with homework, extracurricular activities, and organize events such as camps and sports days. Together with teachers, they will support children in overcoming academic challenges and help them integrate better into the school system. The volunteers will be active in two primary schools and in youth outreach. Their goal is to raise awareness among children and the community about the importance of environmental protection, solidarity, respect, and active participation in today's society. They will focus on ways to make the environment where we live more beautiful and better.

Training during the activity
As part of the ESC program, volunteers are required to complete language courses on the Online Linguistic Support platform. Additionally, there are two mandatory training sessions organized by the National Agency: an On-Arrival Training at the start of the program and a Mid-Term Training partway through. Volunteers also have access to a variety of online training opportunities through the Salto platform, which cover multiple areas of interest and skill development. With the support of a mentor, each volunteer will complete a Youthpass certification to document their learning and achievements.
