  • Description

    Description

    We are small group of families with homeschooling children in the southernmost rice fields and forests of Hualien. We are in the early stages of establishing a Donguri-club and Waldorf-inspired natural education program in our rural community. Our vision is to create a learning environment where children grow up in close connection with nature, while gaining hands-on skills such as planting vegetables, food preparation, clothing making, shelter building, and exploring various approaches to health and healing.

    At this initial stage, we expect to have 3 to 7 children aged 4 to 7 years old. We are looking for someone who is skilled or interested in cooking, art, playing musical instruments and rice farming.

    From time to time, there will be visiting Waldorf students and teachers from the West side of Taiwan, as well as kindergarten teachers who come to support and learn from the experience.

    We are also happy to offer space to resonating families with kids 4-7 years old that want to spend here some months or even settle in this area.

    Please note that our location is quite rural, so a valid driver's license is necessary for transportation.

    Additional Information:

    Visa: We can help you to apply for a volunteer visa.
    Accommodation: Free accommodation is available through a government rental program.

    Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

    Volunteers can experience an eco-friendly way of living—what to wear, what products to use on our bodies, and how to make more sustainable daily choices. We also share knowledge and hands-on experience in a variety of natural and alternative health treatments.

    Most importantly, you’ll have the opportunity to learn about our unique approach to raising children, which combines three philosophies: Donguli Club, Waldorf education, and Forest School principles.

    Through hosting volunteers, we hope our children gain a broader perspective of the world—learning about different cultures, values, and ways of life. We want them to grow up appreciating diversity and the richness it brings.

    Our home and the volunteers’ accommodation are about a 10-minute drive or a 30-minute bicycle ride apart. We usually help with transport between the two, and you’re welcome to use our bicycle or motorbike as needed. Since some of our family members and teachers also live at the volunteer accommodation, we prepare and share all three meals together there.
