Do you enjoy getting groups of children excited about nature? Then this is for you. You will work together with an IVN school guide.
For years, IVN has been organizing excursions for school classes in Ede for children in groups 5, 6, and 7. A group of certified IVN school guides accompanies the excursion. As a guide, you are part of the group of guides. We have various themed excursions: pollarding willows, working on the heath, the toad migration, the spring forest, aquatic creatures, and the autumn forest.
What are you going to do?
You will accompany a group of children during the excursion. All excursions have a clear program. We prepare for this with clear instructions or a joint excursion involving all guides. Before you head out independently, you will take a guide course or accompany an experienced guide.
Working hours
By arrangement, during school hours.
Who are we looking for?
Some basic knowledge of nature is helpful. Furthermore, you must have an affinity with children and guiding groups. IVN Ede requires volunteers working with children to provide a Certificate of Conduct (VOG). You can apply for this VOG free of charge through IVN Ede. If you are not yet a member of IVN Ede, we ask you to become a member (cost: 24 euros per year).
What do we have to offer you?
Enjoyment of nature and enthusiastic children.
What makes the work worthwhile?
Passing on a love for nature to children is of great importance, so that they continue to appreciate the value of nature and the environment later in life.
