Interesting or nice about this vacancy
Do you believe it is important that all children in the Netherlands have equal opportunities, and do you enjoy working with children? Then this vacancy is perfect for you! You will make a social contribution while simultaneously working on your own development. You will learn to manage a project and be given the space to develop your own talents. You will receive training in didactic and coaching skills. Furthermore, it is very beneficial for your CV and network, as you will collaborate with parties such as the municipality, businesses, and schools.
Tasks and duties
The Move Foundation pairs a group of students with a Group 7 or Group 8 class from a primary school. If you participate in a Move project, you share responsibility with the children for devising and executing a social project. The children's ideas and talents take center stage: together with the students, they give their neighborhood a boost over a period of 3 to 5 months. For example, they organize a games afternoon for the elderly, create a work of art in the neighborhood, or conduct an environmental campaign together with local residents. Afterwards, the children are incredibly proud of what they have accomplished based on their own talents and ideas!
Before the project begins, you will receive training on the project content and teaching methodology training, ensuring you are fully prepared to stand in front of the group. The teacher will, of course, be present in the classroom. In total, you will have seven meetings with the children: five lessons in the classroom, one field trip where the children learn about what it means to study, and naturally, a spectacular closing event where the children ceremoniously carry out or unveil their project in the neighborhood. During the project, you will be guided by a project coordinator from Stichting Move.
Skills and qualities
