Project
Secondary School in Dabrowa Bialostocka was built in 1962. The teaching staff support and cooperate with each other. They are open-minded, tolerant and friendly people. There is a friendly atmosphere at school. The school consists of secondary school, vocational school and secondary school for adults. It has several active pupil’s organizations: scout team, theatre group, volunteers’ organization, school newspaper.
The school is situated in a small town Dabrowa Bialostocka ( about 6,000 inhabitants) in north-eastern Poland. It is not an industrial region of Poland but it is a very calm and peaceful place located near the Biebrza river. It is a popular place for activities such cycling, canoeing, sailing especially in the summer. Volunteers will be able to visit nearby cities ( Bialystok, AugustA3w, Suchowola – the centre of Europe). There is the Culture Centre and the cinema here. Volunteers can participate in informal education offered by non-government organizations ( e.g. Youth Initiative Group – they support disabled peoplea and local environment; Occupational Therapy Workshops -they work with disabled people; scout team; the Culture Centre ). They can develop their sport activities ( e.g. handball, football, volleyball,bowling alley ).There is a boarding house in our school and there are prepared places for volunteers. They will live and work in the same place. It is provided full board in a school canteen. The volunteers can also use the kitchen.
With help of the volunteers we want to exchange ideas from the working field and establish contacts with the foreign organizatons. We hope that cooperation between young people will be inspiring for the volunteers and youngsters. We would like to develop in our students such attitudes like tolerance, respect for other people’s variety and dissimilarity and being more open-minded. Volunteers could bring a fresh perspective and enthusiasm to our project.
