The Polish Robert Schuman Foundation is looking for volunteers, who would like to join our Erasmus + EVS project in 2015, which is focused on social care and the special education of children. Currently we are looking for volunteers for the following receiving organizations:
1. Special Kindergarten No 245 for Visually Impaired Children in Warsaw (EI Reference Number: 2012-PL-51) 2 volunteers / 10 months (starting date: September 2015)
Volunteers work in group and, should the need arise, also directly with a blind child and assist the child during its stay in the kindergarten. They teach the children to use the equipment available on the premises, assist during the teacher-managed group classes, additional activities, help with typical self-care activities, such as personal hygiene, help at eating and dressing. Volunteers are welcome to propose their own activities and can count on teachers to support them.
Considering the described activities in which the volunteers would be executing or participating in we believe that they would have the possibility to develop their pedagogical skills in the area of working with children with special needs, as well as participating in various workshops and trainings organised by and/or in the kindergarten. We are also aware of the fact that working with visually impaired or blind children is very demanding and that volunteers would need specific guidelines and training to prepare them and help them with their work. Verbal communication between the volunteers and the children is very important, especially that our children due to their visual impairment cannot rely on non-verbal communication so much. It is for this reason as well that we would put special attention on the knowledge of Polish language of the volunteers. Polish language course would be provided with the mentioned goal as well as the aim to make the interaction and communication between the volunteers and the kindergarten staff easier.
2. Special Kindergarten No 213 in Warsaw (PIC number: 945041610), 3 volunteers / 10 months (starting date: September 2015).
Volunteers help in the group of autistic children between 6-10 years old in their everyday activities. Since children are usually more self-sufficient there are group activities, games and individual therapy.
Volunteers learn a lot about different kinds of disabilities and the way to work with such children. Such environment offers an opportunity to overcome your own boundaries, break stereotypes and to seek for ways of spreading awareness about mentally disabled outside the kindergarten
3. Special Kindergarten No 393 in Warsaw (PIC number: 944083541), 3 volunteers/ 10 months (starting date: September 2015).
Volunteers participate in the classes and help the staff. They help changing children’s clothes, feeding the children or help them eat their meals, go to the toilet. There is a special kindergarten plan which educators must follow but there is also some space for their own creativity (proposing theatre instead of reading to children for example or exercising their artistic talent preparing materials and scenery for kindergarten plays and seasonal ornaments etc.)
Volunteers can also suggest educational group activities and/or individual work process for one child, all under supervision of an educator. Volunteers are also involved in preparations of festivities for the occasion of traditional Polish holidays.
Volunteers can learn a lot about different methods of working with children with various disabilities. They have a chance to see therapeutic meetings, learn about adapted computer programs and didactic tools.
4. The Society for Care over the Blind in Laski – near Warsaw (EI Reference Number: 2013-PL-196), 2 volunteers / 10 months (starting date: September 2015).
Mainly the volunteers work focuses on a flat-community (female or male dormitory) and helping the pupils with their daily activities, such as getting ready for school, encourage them to take part in extra-curricular activities (e.g. swimming, musical, artistic and sport activities). Additionally, for interested in that fill, there is a possibility to assist in school, to help out with language opportunities and homeworks. Volunteers in Laski get a close experience of every day life of blind youth. They have a chance to learn all about how to assist a blind person, using the cane, Braille alphabet, different methods and activities useful for tactile improvement, special orientation and so on.
Providing language learning opportunities for the pupils, they also have a chance to gain a new perspective of their mother tongue.
Γενικά
We are looking for volunteers aged between 18 and 30 years, legally residing in one of the Program or Partner Countries Neighboring the EU. We seek a balance of varied ages, genders and nationalities amongst our EVS volunteers. We are not looking for experienced volunteers but those that would learn a lot during the service. Apart from personal motivation of volunteers our requirement is volunteers' strong will of learning Polish language after selection procedure successfully ends.
We need selected volunteers to know a few crucial phrases and already have substantial vocabulary of Polish at the moment they start their EVS. Why is this important? Because they will work with disabled children and youth, which often does not speak English or any other language.
We will pay special attention to those candidates, who are keen on any creative forms of special education (manual, artistic, musical, etc.), which are appreciated by kids, teachers and the Foundation as well.
