Project week in Göllheim: Fire brigade and clubs inspire kids!

In Göllheim, a lively project week recently took place at the primary school on Königspfad, which was all about volunteer work. Headmaster Heike Keller emphasized the crucial role that committed participants play in the implementation of such projects. Without the support of clubs and volunteers, such a varied week would hardly have been possible. The children experienced a wide variety of activities at a fast pace and full of joy, ranging from visits to the fire department to creative craft projects. This project week is an excellent example of how important voluntary commitment is to the education and support of young people, as vereine.de emphasizes.

Overall, the students were able to try out a variety of activities. You take the plunge into the world of the fire department: Elke Herbert-Braun and Marcus Braun from the “Weitschwiller Wieselwehr”, the children and youth department of the Weitersweiler fire department, presented the fire service profession. The second graders had the opportunity to view fire engines, try on emergency clothing and take their first steps with the hose. “Trips to traffic accidents are common practice for firefighters,” explained Marcus Braun, giving the children exciting insights into the everyday lives of his professional colleagues. This event was one of the highlights of the project week.

A variety of activities delight the children

But it wasn't just firefighting knowledge that was on the agenda. With guidance, the children were also able to build pan flutes, try out kickboxing, or have fun with handball and waveboarding. The creative handicraft activity with the rural women was particularly well received. Thanks to the children's feedback, it is clear that this project week was a complete success. Many people involved, including the volunteers from the fire department, show how valuable their time is and how they contribute to the positive development of the children, which also supports the initiative of bildungsserver.de.

The importance of these project weeks is undisputed. Not only do they provide new energy in the final phase of the school year, but they also promote important life skills such as teamwork and creativity. School projects are often the focus because they support children's independent learning. Wherever volunteers get involved, education comes to life. “We help our members to establish contacts with schools and thus attract young talent,” explains Heike Keller, who particularly praised the valuable cooperation with the clubs.

Volunteers as key players

The positive response to the project week can also be seen in the fact that several children have joined the fire department, thus introducing future generations to the fire service. This shows once again how lasting the effects of such a week can be. The participants, many of whom are very busy at work, still take the time to inspire children and show them different perspectives, be it in sport, art or imparting knowledge.

In summary, it can be said that voluntary involvement in education and culture is not only of great value for the children involved, but also represents a mainstay of our society. So it is not surprising that projects like these are very popular in the community of Göllheim and prepare children for life in a playful way, which vereine.de also promotes. We can't wait to see what creative solutions and exciting topics the coming project weeks have in store!
