Détails sur le chantier

Description: Every summer RIS Dvorec Rakičan organizes English camps. These camps are intended for Slovene children from different regions of Slovenia. During the camp, children learn foreign languages through games, sports, music as well as art and cultural activities. The camp also offers all children equal opportunities and makes no social differences. Children socialize with each other, get familiar with their companions and spend the summer in the arms of the nature. Activities are organized and well planed with the help of children, according to weather conditions and other organisational conditions. We are involving volunteers from all over the world, thus adding value to our project

Type de travail: Volunteers will have a chance to create and lead some of the creative workshops for children. On the first day of the camp they will get the chance to present the country, their culture to the children. They will also participate in all sports and art activities (horseback riding, visiting the swimming pool, archery, preparing theater plays). The volunteers will also make a kitchen service plan according to which they will help in the kitchen. They will prepare traditional dishes typical for their home country. In addition, volunteers will help with the cleaning (cleaning dishes and cleaning up in the kitchen and dining room).

Thèmes de reflexion / d'études : Volunteers will expand their work experience with children. they will improve their leadership skills and skills of cooperation and working in group. Through the exchange of experience with fellow volunteers, they will be able to further enrich their knowledge. Volunteers will learn more about Slovenian culture and typical local food. Within the framework of workshops they will develop and strengthen their creative thinking and social skills. Our goal is to strengthen children's English language skills as well as volunteer's language skills.
