Volunteer in Summer camps with children

From the moment I arrived Moni warmly welcomed me. She kindly picked me up from the bus station and even dropped me off on my last day. I stayed at her home with her two lovely children, and I felt incredibly comfortable and at ease. The two-day camp hosted 39 children with full-day English immersion activities, which were fun and engaging. It was easy to connect with the kids, and the coordinator, Jash, was always supportive. I also had some free time to explore Santander and the beautiful coast. Thank you to Moni, Jash, and the team for this unforgettable experience!

I feel very happy and grateful to have been a volunteer at NewPa. I think this has been the best experience I've had this summer. The host and other volunteers were very kind and welcomed. Even though I don't speak Spanish, the volunteers, monitors, and host were all very friendly and could speak English. The kids at the camp also made an effort to speak English. The work hours and break times were well-organized because we had shifts and days off, which I found to be very balanced, allowing me to still explore the city. I highly recommend volunteering at NewPa.

It was my first time volunteering with my friend Kristýna, and we couldn't have chosen a better project. NewPa is a great project with amazing people who will make you feel at home. I've learned a lot and can't thank them enough for everything. The hours you are supposed to work are well-organized with a balance between spending time with kids and other necessary work (usually helping in the kitchen), and there was a lot of free time for us to explore the town and its surroundings. It was a great opportunity to connect with nature and meet many great people. I highly recommend this. :)

Pt1. Me and my girlfriend Summer stayed at the camping camp in Comillas for 9 days and enjoyed it thoroughly. At first it was a bit strange living at a camp with few luxuries but we quickly got used to it. Most of the time was being a kitchen hand and washing up, and the rest was helping with the activities and games with the kids. Note we didn't get much working time with the children. The cook was particular about how many people should be in the kitchen which we respected but is something to be wary of.

Pt2. They had a very clear approach to work hours which is when you're on shift you need to be 100% focused and when you are off shift you don't need to do any work. The timetable is clear and the food was really nice with 2 snacks throughout the day as well. The staff and children were lovely and funny and we made some good friends. Many thanks to the coordinator Luis who took Summer to the hospital at night for her injured foot and Bruno who picked us up at 3am to crash at his place for some sleep.

Thank you to Rash and the NewPa team for having me for the week! I felt welcomed and supported from the very start. Tasks were straightforward and they really respected our free time. Exploring the surroundings and going for long walks around the camp was lovely, as well as meeting other monitors, volunteers and kids.

NewPa is run by extremely friendly, collaborative, and flexible people. If you're up for learning something new, they are happy to teach you. And if you aren't comfortable with a task, they'll find something you'll enjoy doing. (For instance, me and a new Australian friend of mine learned how to weild a scythe. The grim reaper's weapon of choice ;) They also understand that life happens and you might need a few days to attend a funeral. I loved our small community of international volunteers and the monitors who made the kids' camp fun for everyone involved. I look forward to staying in touch.

I volunteer for just a week but it was clear how much passion and energy they put in their project! I felt they're not just a team but a family, and they made me feel a part of it. The educational project was great, it teaches real and important skills to the children in fun ways. A great experience, recommended!

My weeks in NewPa were amazing, I learned a lot with the team and with the kids. The energy of everyone is always incredibly and it is super important to me. I did a lot of new things, could improve my English, stayed close to the nature, and met volunteers from all of the world. I just have to thank Rash and Moni for all the support and congratulations for this project.

We are so grateful that we crossed paths with Ana! She was such a lovely presence to have at camp. Hardworking, always looking to help and integrated well with the team and children. As a nutritionalist, she also provided valuable insight that will help us improve our Responsible MasterChef activity in the future. We hope that you join us again Ana! Good luck with all your endevours! Hugs.
