Personal development
We have done theater and corporal expressions activities with the children from Mihai Viteazul and Schola Gimnaziala nº 3, adapting the activities to the age. They have learned formulas to increase the self-esteem, concentration and enjoy, using an alternative method as it is the theatre.
We have had sessions talking about Erasmus+ and EVS with the students from Mihai Viteazul and Stephan Angel, because maybe,e in a few years, they could be interested in participating in these kinds of projects. We have encouraged them to do it from our experience as volunteers.

Also, we have talked about the importance of teamwork and having a collaboration spirit, when playing football or in other aspects of life.
We have connected the students in different events we have done, like Christmas Event or Football Match, and even we have connected the children from Centrul Sperantei and Schola Gimnaziala nº 3, and the result was very good, as they enjoyed. We had food and toys collected in some events before Christmas in the schools, and many children participated. The children from Sperantei were really happy when they received the toys, and they prepared some songs to sing in front of the children of Schola Gimnaziala as a token of gratitude.
In addition, Domi and Maria went with the children from Schola Gimnaziala nº 3 to distribute food and toys to different houses. It was a beautiful moment concerning personal development.
In general, we think that children have learned from us, but we have learned much more from them because, after this experience, our hearts have considerably widened. Thank you guys from everything.
