Morgane, apprentice teacher (6 January – 28 June 2017)

Having completed my training as a kindergarten teacher in Switzerland, I decided to work with the association to help the teachers there.

For six months, after the shock of the cultural difference in the classes, I assisted the three teachers and their substitutes to discuss various educational topics and carry out various activities together.

I have experienced strong moments and successes, but also failures and disappointments. Is ! It made me stronger, allowed me to find other solutions more suited to the local culture, children and teachers.

I also spent time at the library: for example, I set up with Namibian volunteers and Sacha, another volunteer of French origin, a project about the environment. The participating children took lessons and carried out research on different environmental issues.

Beyond my work in Otjiwarongo, I especially discovered a magical country, a warm people and smiling and endearing children. My daily life was full of discoveries, simplicity, exchanges. I take a lot out of it, both professionally and personally, and I come home with a heart filled with the smiles of Peri Naua’s children.
