THE CHILDREN’S TREE: A SPACE TO LEARN

The meeting point is at the train station of CLERMONT-FERRAND at the end of the afternoon. The exact time of the meeting will be communicated with the Info Sheet, sent one month before the beginning of the workcamp.

Several direct trains (approximately one every two hours) depart from PARIS - Bercy (3.5-hour journey) and from LYON - Part-Dieu (2.5-hour journey).

If possible, please consider using low-carbon transportation (train and bus rather than airplane) for a sustainable international workcamp.

The trains are open to booking about 4 months before the departure dates, accessible on the following website:

You will be accompanied by two camp leaders throughout your stay.

You will be staying at "Le Chanset" campsite in Ceyrat, in the Auvergne Volcanoes Regional Nature Park, near the Chaîne des Puys, in individual tents with inflatable mattresses and a communal large tent for group activities (tents are provided by Concordia). You will share various group tasks and prepare meals together. A budget will be allocated to the leaders and you will help with the shopping, focusing on healthy, local products. Free WiFi is available at the campsite. Laundry can be done by hand or in the washing machines at the campsite (paid service).

Please fill the Parental Agreement and the Medical Fact Sheet as soon as possible (at least 3 weeks before the beginning of the workcamp).

The vaccines proofs (a note from the doctor or a copy of the vaccines) is MANDATORY, see list in the Medical Fact Sheet. Unvaccinated volunteers will not be accepted.

Foreigners belonging to the European Union must bring with them a personal EHIC (European Health Insurance Card), and everybody must, in any case, bring their insurance certificate. If health issues arise on the project, volunteers will have to pay for them, and will then be reimbursed once back in their home country.
