Resumo: The hosting organization is a 140-year-old free school with lots of traditions, fantastically placed in rural surroundings close to forest, beach, and the sea.

The hosting organization has approximately 100 pupils from kindergarten class to 9th grade in the current school year and has its own afterschool program with approximately 1/3 of the schools’ primary level pupils attending (grades 0th – 5th). There are 8 teachers in the school and 2 adults in the afterschool program. The school has since 2003 had the lower secondary school (grades 7th – 9th) and through this the school is offering the “Primary and Lower-secondary School Leaving Certificate” (folkeskolens afgangsprøve), and furthermore electives are offered in the lower secondary school which has a more creative character and a good number of hours per week.

At the school there is ample opportunity for physical activities as it is situated on a large plot with soccer field, campfire site, nature playground, sandboxes, swings, climbing tower, shelter and much more. There is also plenty of forest, thicket and lovely old crooked trees, where the children climb and make hide-outs.

The hosting organization is a creative, academically well-founded and project-oriented free school based on the Grundtvig-Koldian perspective on school and life, and this means that the school does not profess to a certain ideology or a certain pedagogical principle.

The school attaches great importance to teaching in a homely, present, and safe environment, taking into account the individual’s personality and development stages, as well as what the child is susceptible to. Therefore, one of the principles is that there should be no more than 18 pupils in each class. There are also several classes that are taught together, e.g., grade 4 and grade 5 is taught together as one group.

At the hosting organization interdisciplinary and fluent transitions between subjects where this feels natural and encouraging for a holistic understanding of human life is very important. It means to cater for the pupil’s education and formation the best possible way.

Perfil: We prefer a mature volunteer with an interest in children and youth in a school context. We expect the volunteer to speak either English or German fluently and participate in a supportive way, e.g., in language teaching. The volunteer must have familiarized him(her-)self with the school’s values and be loyal to these thoughts.
Age: 18-30

Tarefas: The volunteers will participate in the daily morning gathering and the teaching as a supportive adult where it makes sense and where their interests are in particular, as well as in the after school programme. We would very much like to invite our volunteers to make presentations about their country or their interests in a school context.

In our school there will be workdays with practical work where the families attend the school and we have a joint meal and do practical work a couple of times a year. In addition, during the school year, there will be educational meetings that you will need to attend as well as traditions around yearly festivals and more.
