INITIATIVE ET DEVELOPPEMENT CITOYEN
Association Créative
Recurt, France
Description
We are looking for 1 volunteer to stay with us from october 2025 for the whole school year :) The association’s purpose is really to broadcast a creative and open minded parentality, but also to propose an alternative to classical education, opened to the world and respectful to our environnement. We have an educationnal approach based on different pedagogies: Montessori, Freinet, Steiner, pedagogy of projects and pedagogy by the nature. We also use some innovative tools like non violent communication, cooperation, emotions management…. The opening vision on the world is one of our pedagogic project’s pilar. We follow some interesting adventurer’s project to discover the world and to approach different kind of subjects like the environment, the animals, the ocean’s pollution… We love practicing foreign languages used in rituals context and discover others cultures and countries, songs, movies, cooking… We also go to the forest every friday morning to discover and learn with nature.
Modalités d'hébergement, de restauration et de transport
Since the school is located in a small village in the rural area, accomodation is not always easy, but always comfortable! The volunteer will share the apartment in the village of Lannemezan with another volunteer of the school. In this village there are all commerces and also a train station. To go to school, volunteers can choose to go by bike or walk (which can take some time but for the sportives is great!) or there is an schedule of car-pooling so the parents of the school can pick volunteers up and bring them to school and back to the house.
