Descrição
Hello. We are an alternative school in Shiga, Japan.

We believe in children's power to make their own decision. We place great emphasis on hands-off approach. We, adults, are there to assist when they need help but not to guide them.

There are 12 kids (age b/w 1 and 12 years old, 6 families) We need a personal who can spend time with school age kids (6 of them). We engage in both outdoor and indoor activities depending on what the kids would like to do.

Preschool age kids (btw 0 and 6 years old) are accompanied by their parents. Kids above school age (btw 7 and older) spend time away from their parents.

We are not business.
We are looking for volunteers.
