Work: Each year Gulercin Primary School organizes summer activities for the children between 10 and 16 years old. This year’s theme is “Environment”. In order to enable international dialogue and intercultural learning and promote international solidarity among the children, this year the primary school would like to invite international volunteers who will take part in the summer activities for the children. Together with the children the volunteers will be take part in two different work; one is planting, gardening and vegetation in the forestry of the school and the other one is creating a drama performance on environmental issues, including writing the story, putting on the stage, costumes, make-up, etc. For the performance they will be encouraged to use recycled materials. At the end of the camp they will stage a drama performance.
