The aim of this project is to support the education of young children at disadvantaged kindergartens and daycare centres. During your project, you’ll assist local teachers by preparing lessons and activities that encourage the children to learn through play.
Many of these centres and kindergartens are often overcrowded. This means that caregivers and teachers are unable to divide their time equally among students. Because of this, some students struggle to keep up in class and end up falling behind in their learning.
English has also become a vital skill in today’s world. By encouraging students to learn English at a young age, there will be many more job opportunities available to them later in life. With your help, they children can practice their English language skills and take part in new, fun activities that promote learning and education.
Support the development of young children through community volunteering with teenagers in Romania.
Brasov
Your Childcare volunteer work in Romania will be based in the city of Brasov. At first glance, the city has a picturesque charm that you’ll fall in love with. With its cobbled streets and terracotta roofs overhead, it feels like you’re walking through a fairy tale. But there is still plenty of hustle and bustle in the city including open markets and side street cafes.
You’ll spend most of your day working at kindergartens or day care centres under the guidance of your project supervisor. You’ll assist caregivers and local teachers who are in desperate need of classroom support.
There is also plenty to see within Brasov and the Transylvania region. Your supervisor will include plenty in your project itinerary. So when you aren’t volunteering, you’ll get to explore with the other high school students. You’ll hike through the Tampa Mountains and visit Count Dracula’s castle!
