Arbeit

In the first two weeks of summer holidays, the children who participate in this summer camp program get picked up in the morning; they spend their day from 9 am at the summer camp and holiday house and return home in the afternoon around 5pm. On Fridays, there is an overnight-stay and a common breakfast with the team and the children. Saturday afternoons and Sundays are free. Your tasks include:

- Taking care of the children: You'll be working with other local caregivers to take care of a group of 12 to 15 children.
- You will be leading workshops in dance, football and painting: If you have any ideas you'd like to include, please feel free to do so in advance!
- Support with set-up and dismantling, as well as logistics: To make it possible, it would be great if you could help in setting up some tents or other things needed.

Be aware that specific tasks will be defined spontaneously depending on the needs and interests of the children. The summer camp is located next to a forest and a sportsground which allow for many outdoor adventures. Please be prepared that, due to the nature of the project, working hours may be longer than in usual workcamps - but work and fun will be mixed.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

You will stay directly in the Sporthalle in Hausen. In the building, there is a big room where you will sleep. The floor will be covered by soft floor mats, so it would be good to bring your own sleeping and pillow! Inside of the building you will find sanitary facilities and a fully equiped kitchen. There is no Wi-Fi or washing machine, so remember that you will need to wash your clothes by hand and buy a Sim Card for Data.

During the week you won't need to worry about lunch! You will have lunch together with all the kids. For dinners and during the weekend, your group will be responsible for going grocery shopping (covered with the camp budget), cooking and cleaning after yourselves.

Lage und Freizeit

Weil der Stadt is a town with almost 20.000 inhabitants. It has a very nice historical centre and is located at the outskirts of the Black Forest – perfect for hiking, if you are up to it! Also public transportation is good, so you can easily reach the regional capital Stuttgart, as well as Karlsruhe or Pforzheim. Free time will be used for trips with the hole group, so please let your camp leader know if you want to do anything individually.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

Every year, the lovely people at the Weil der Stadt Youth Centre organise a summer camp for children, and it's a real hit! About 95 children aged 6-12 years old, take part in the camp, which is full of fun activities like dancing, sports, graffiti, hiking… The great thing about this camp is that it offers children from all backgrounds the opportunity to spend a vacation time while supporting working parents during the first part of the school summer vacations. What's really heartening is that for the past three years, international volunteers and caregivers from the town have been supporting the summer activities and local communities, making a huge impact on the children's lives and development.

Anreise zum Treffpunkt

You will need to take the bus from the Train Station “Weil der Stadt” to the Bus Stop “Hausen Würmtalstraße”. Meeting Point is the Sporthalle Hausen (Am Lindenberg, 71263 Weil der Stadt). It is nearby the bus stop. Please try to arrive between 1 pm to 7 pm. For more info you can check the Train App: https://www.bahn.de/

Anforderungen

You don't have to speak German to join, but it's definitely a plus! Tell us why you're excited to participate in this project, any experience you have, and if you know any German (even just a little). Oh, and since you'll be hanging out with minors, we'll need you to provides us with Certificate of good conduct before the camp kicks off.
