Volunteering in Kindergarten in Hammelburg
Kath. Kirchenstiftung Hammelburg
Hammelburg, Germany
Description
This kindergarten is based on an open concept, which means that the children themselves decide where they want to be and what they want to do. The volunteer should support team in their daily work as well as the children. The activities in which the volunteer is involved: speaking with the children, playing with the children indoors, morning gathering, games in garden (with balls, role games, playing in the sandbox), excursions, days in the forest, but also household tasks (order in the group room, garderobe). The own initiative, proposals of the activities are hoped for and will be supported (maybe you can do some handicrafts, singing, gymnastics..?).
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
The volunteer will live in the beautiful city of Hammelburg in the volunteer flat with single room, shared kitchen and bathroom with two other volunteers. The volunteer will receive food (333€) and pocket money (210€) as well as insurance and monthly train ticket all over Germany (as long as it gets). Also, if needed there will be a German language course offered.
