Project: Welcome to "Mini-Saarland"! Up to 1000 children aged 8-15 are invited to create their own town and become hairdresser, postman, cameraman, detective, policeman, cook, photographer, mayor, fire man,…. - similar to the adult world! Adults are not allowed to enter the area as "Mini-Saarland" belongs to the children. The play scheme takes place at the usual exhibition area and there is lots of space.
Work: Volunteers will support to run the play scheme. Together with local volunteers they will support the children. Working times are from early in the morning till the late afternoon, so days can be hard sometimes. In the beginning there will be an introduction in tasks and responsibilities of all volunteers.
All volunteers should be very motivated to work with kids and bring German language skills.
Location: Saarbrucken is the capital of the state of Saarland near the French border. It was part of the Holy Roman Empire and lots of historical traces can be found. There are plenty of leisure activities for the volunteers - either enjoying the city life or relaxing in the nearby nature after hard working days.
Accommodation: will be in a building.
