Tarefas: The volunteer helps the kindergarten staff with their daily tasks with the children. They can work with a specific age group or from time to time also support other groups, depending on their personal interests and abilities. Volunteers will never work alone but under supervision and guidance of kindergarten group teachers.

The main tasks are helping the teachers, participating in games or lessons with the children, preparing lessons and materials for activities. They are encouraged to introduce songs, games and other interesting aspects of their own culture and traditions. Moreover, this intercultural learning can consist of the preparation of festivals or special days (Christmas, Easter, and Independence Day etc) by teaching songs and dances. The exhibitions about their country or some other European countries would be very welcome.

Volunteers are more than welcome to join every activity we organise either for the children or only the staff members. Kindergarten Okasroosike has 55 years of history and nice traditions, like days with families, sport activity days, visiting theatres and concerts, hikes and excursions during spring and summer. In addition, together with staff members, volunteers can help to organise the Võru Christmas Fair, Võru Town Days and participate in the Folklore Festival as an interpreter etc.

The working time for volunteers will be 30 to 35 h per week from Monday to Friday. The schedule may vary; in some days it’s from 8 to 14 and other days from 12 to 17.30.
