About the project
Tur Cos ta Posibel provides placements in Aruba for early years students who will be working in a local school which currently has provision from birth to 2nd grade. Suitable for both apprentices and college based students from vocational or technical colleges for 2-3 weeks and can accommodate groups of up to 8 students and 2 tutors. Projects are tailored to match learners studies.
Our aim is to provide hands on experience and cultural immersion. The Mornings centre around general education (maths, English, science etc) for those of school age and educational games/activities in the nursery classes. The afternoons are ‘after school’ provision and as such they are joined by children up to 15 yrs from other local schools. There are a variety of activities in these sessions, art, music, show and tell, choir practice, nutrition and more. Groups will be expected to plan an activity for one of the afternoons each week which they will deliver and support, ideally something typical to their home country. Lunch will be provided by the school but trainees can choose to take their own if they prefer.
