Profile: </span><span style="font-family: times, serif;">The volunteer should fulfil certain criteria which are essential for the success of his or her EVS project. We expect the volunteer to be a communicative, responsible person, who is able to fulfil agreed tasks and follow his or her schedule. The common language between the employees and volunteers is English and it is recommended that they be able to understand and speak a basic level of English. Any previous experience with work with children and youth is welcomed, but is not a necessity. The project is very suitable for volunteers who are interested in work with children and youth in the areas of social work, free time activities and non-formal education.</span></span></div><div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 127);font-family: times, serif;"><br></span></div><div><span><div style="font-family: times, serif;font-size: 12pt;"><div><span style="color: rgb(127, 0, 63);">3. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Project Venue: Krakow, POLAND</span></span></div><div><span style="color: rgb(127, 0, 63);"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Project Dates</span>: October 2012 - June 2013 /9 months/</span></div></div><div><span style="color: rgb(127, 0, 63);"><span style="font-size: 12pt;font-family: times, serif;font-weight: bold;">Project Activities: </span><span>Main aim of this project is to increase ecological awareness among children and connected with this idea of environment and nature protection. - We would expect our volunteers to prepare and implement multileveled program about environment care and waste recycling. Since few years in April each year our kindergarten organises countrywide plastic contest “Save the Environment” connected with celebration of “Days of Earth in Cracow”. We expect that: - each of the volunteers, who will take part in our project, to prepare (before coming to
Poland) a plastic work presenting attitude towards waste recycling in chosen country of the European Union. We believe that through this actions volunteers will make the problem of ecological awareness in other countries closer, and that they will inspire kindergartners and their parents to new ideas how to care about ecological environment. Since the very first years of our kindergartens we try to develop in them way of thinking and behaviour. We believe that child raised in the need to feel contact with the nature, taught pro ecological thinking what in the adult age will help them to fix or neutralise negative impact of economy on the ecological environment that was implemented by their predecessors. We would like to create healthy and ecological behaviour among our children by contact with volunteers. - We hope that our guests apart of deep engagement in project of propagation ecological education will take part in various workshops for children and
their parents “I can name my fillings”. We would desire these meetings to be an opportunity to get a closer contact with the group and to inspire them to play games, and activities developing various emotions. Beside the main theme of the project which is ecology and art, we would like volunteers also to focus on pedagogical aspects of the project. - We would like volunteers to present their ways of spending time with children, - We hope that volunteers will realize their own ideas during activities in which children take active part, - We would like volunteers to take active part in the classes, where they can teach (in their native language) kindergartners some songs, poems or common games what will help children to know other languages in simple way.</span></span></div><div><span style="color: rgb(127, 0, 63);"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Volunteer Profile: </span><span>We would like
volunteers that will come to our kindergarten to show interest in ecology and it would be great advantage if they will have an artistic nature. Work of the volunteers will include working with children 5 and 6 years old. The experiences in the work with the children will be very good. The volunteer should be an open, creative, easy-going person, self reliant and good communicator. We think that presence of volunteers will contribute towards cultural exchange and will be a great opportunity to bring new ideas about creating ecological awareness and other positive ideas.</span></span></div><div><span style="color: rgb(127, 0, 63);">/<span style="font-weight: bold;">TO APPLY FOR THE EVS IN POLAND, YOU ALSO NEED TO FILL IN THE ATTACHED APPLICATION FORM</span>/ </span></div></span></div></div></div></div></span></div></div></div></div></div></font></div></body></html>
