Resumo: The host organization is a private state accredited school founded in 1994. School hosts around 150 pupils in age from 7 to 16 (1st - 9th grade of primary education). Each class has maximum number of pupils - 16.

Therefore the teachers deal with small groups and everyone knows everybody in the school. As a private school it functions mainly with the support of private donors and the cooperation with the pupils' families is very important in order to build mutual understanding, be a good team and promote the school on the background of state
funded schools.

Therefore Primary School Support was founded in 2007 with an aim to facilitate the communication between the school and parents and promote the cooperation of the school community with other social
organizations.
The mission of the school and parents is to create an effective, modern and innovative open school fostering development of spiritually rich, creative and harmonic personalities with values based in Christianity.

Perfil: We require volunteers to fill in special questionary when applying. From all applications received by the deadline, there will be selected 4-6 applicants for Skype interviews.
The overall general motivation letters and CV forwarded to several hosting organisations will not be taken into consideration. We want to know why exactly the volunteer wants to come and work with us. The volunteer willing to apply for our project should be interested in work with children. It could be someone interested to study pedagogics afterwards.
Any artistic, creative skills like music, dance, drawing and knowledge of English, Russian or French are welcome but not obligatory.
Important aspect of our organization is the connection with Catholic church and parish people, so it is important that the volunteer has respect to the Christian values and faith without any fanaticism.
In order to be allowed to work with school children the volunteer should present criminal record
when arriving to the hosting organization.
Age: 17-30

We would like to focus more on the second option - involving EVS volunteers in providing the freetime activities for children having breaks between classes or after classes, in the afternoon.
