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.

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.
Alloggio

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.

The aim of this workcamp is to join MASNATUR in the summer camps, this association works to promote, through entertainment activities, the integral development of people with disabilities (especially children and young people) and to provide respite time for their families. The absence of autonomy, associated with disability, means an overload of work for family members. These families are faced with a time to rest or to devote to their other children.
Another element of inclusion provided by MASNATUR is the possibility of sharing these activities with other people and being enriched by the group. Many people with disabilities, especially children and young people, did not enjoy leisure outside their family or school environment.

PROJECT: Camp Crusoe is the quintessentially British Summer Camp experience, where campers feel connected, valued, challenged and supported. The host wants every camper to have a fun experience and is passionate about ‘making the most of every moment’. Camp Crusoe is a fun and adventurous camp and not a summer school. Camp Crusoe prides themselves on being a small camp that cares, there are no more than 80 campers per week stay; the host is passionate that community bonds are formed throughout their stay at camp and friendships that remain long after camp has finished.
The extensive programme of activities from water sports to drama, archery to photography, appeals to every type of child, offering the opportunity for each camper to grow in confidence, improve their decision-making skills and maybe discover a new lifelong hobby. We don’t try to cram too much in and allow just the right amount of time for campers to hangout, make new friends and play together. Camp Crusoe is a small, independent camp run by a close-knit team of friends and family who are committed to enriching children’s lives. The core group have many years’ experiences working with children both on summer camps and in the classroom and are supported by a highly trained and motivated team of camp counsellors, many of whom have worked at camp before and are planning a career working with children.

The project gets teens of 14 to 16 years old familiar with national traditions of the countries from all over the world, encourages them to develop their global thinking and individual initiative, tolerance and resistance to xenophobia and ethnic hatred. Camps give foreign participants a great chance to meet youngsters both from Estonia and other countries as well as to experience local life. This summer we offer you to participate in our project called KALEIDOSCOPE . We invite camp participants to discuss ideas of chaos and order, mess and harmony. Together, we will discover our own infinite potential and freedom to create new patterns of life, same way as we create patterns out of random single pieces of colourful glass twisting a kaleidoscope. We will learn how to find harmony in apparent disorder and use chaos as a tool for stress relief, how to turn imperfection into the source of true beauty and embrace uncertainty to make our life journey more successful, unique and vibrant. Camp participants will gain ideas and skills how to deal with a million of combinations of the world s reality.Meetings with local and/or international professionals in the field will take place. Thematic photo and video contests for camp participants will be organized.

Currently it offers a wide range of possibilities for kids, youth and adults: it unites different projects in one house, e.g. a youth club, a workshop and makerspace, intercultural or cultural education or urban gardening. There is enough inside and outdoor space for gatherings and sports, sharing things and opinions, playing music and partying together and … much more! The biggest event organized by the RABRYKA is the FOKUS Festival, in which you will also participate.
The head organisation of the RABRYKA is the “Second Attempt e.V.”, which highly motivates people to develop the civil society of Goerlitz. Everyone is invited to join meetings that focus on the vision of a society, which respects the values of tolerance, equality and cross-cultural empathy.

Come Hunt Ghosts and Rebuild the Past! Welcome to Ornezan, in the heart of the Gers, where the adventure continues! Last summer, a first team started rebuilding the cemetery wall. Now, it's time to finish the job! That's where you come in. During this project, you’ll learn traditional masonry techniques and work with local stones to bring this wall back to life. If you're ready for the challenge, join the Ghostbusters Wall Edition adventure and leave your mark on the heritage of this welcoming and charming village!
Luogo
Ornezan is a small village in the Gers, surrounded by rolling hills and valleys. The landscape is shaped by agriculture, with fields, lakes, and winding paths weaving between farms and forests. The Gers is a region where life moves at a slower pace, with a strong Gascon identity still alive today. You might even hear a few words of Occitan at the market or in local conversations. Your work days will be balanced with moments of relaxation. When the summer heat peaks, you can cool off in nearby lakes. Throughout the season, numerous village festivals take place, featuring open-air meals, dances, and performances. History enthusiasts can follow in the footsteps of pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago or explore sites like the Gallo-Roman villa of Seviac. And, of course, Gers’ gastronomy is an experience in itself! Among the local specialties, you can savor Lectoure melons, apple croustade, hearty Gascon vegetable soup, and delicious sheep and goat cheeses produced in the region.
Alloggio
You will be accommodated in individual tents, with access to toilets, showers and kitchen. The group will be sharing the cleaning chores and preparing meals together. The budget will be allocated to the group leader and you will participate in the grocery shopping and in the preparation of meals, prioritizing vegetarian products from the market and local producers. Please bring your sleeping bag and mat. You will wash your clothes and other items manually. Wifi is not available, French volunteers can share their internet connections via a hotspot.
