This academic year there are 215 children registered and participating in classes. 25 teachers work in kindergarten. Besides working with curriculum on daily basis, our kindergarten specially focuses on children’s healthcare, environmental awareness, local studies and preparation for school. We have nice traditions like: days with family, outdoor education, sport activity days, visiting theatres and concerts, hikes and excursions during spring and summer.

Presentation of the program

Kindergarten Päkapikk is a municipal kindergarten located in Võru. It operates with ten groups, comprising two groups for small children aged 1.5 to 3 years, and eight groups for children aged 3 to 7 years. The kindergarten values outdoor education and cultural traditions. Besides working with curriculum on daily basis, the kindergarten especially focuses on children’s healthcare, environmental awareness, local studies and preparation for school. Volunteers play a supportive role in the kindergarten, helping staff with daily activities. They can choose to work with a specific age group or assist across multiple groups based on their interests and abilities. Volunteers have the chance to contribute ideas, propose new teaching games, songs, dances, share aspects of their own culture with the children.

Extra information

The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
