Agapedia Center Brasov

The Agapedia Center Brasov offers two different after-school care programs for children:
With the club "The little explorers" we want to create a sustainable foundation for the children's personal and emotional development - based on Christian values - which give them orientation, confidence and support. The aim is to prepare them to become responsible, committed and reflective adults who can find their way in an increasingly complex world.

The activities include:
- Outdoor adventures: Hiking, learning survival skills (e.g. knot tying, camping, making fires and cooking with minimal tools etc.) as well as promoting responsible interaction with nature.
- Character development: Responsibility, teamwork and leadership skills are encouraged through targeted activities and challenges - always combined with practical learning.
- Teaching values: The children learn and live by core values such as respect, honesty, kindness, compassion and helpfulness.
- Community involvement: Children are encouraged to get involved in community service projects - for example by helping to green public spaces, maintaining and cleaning playgrounds or supporting disadvantaged people.

The aim of the second, extracurricular after-school care program is to support children from socially disadvantaged families in their school learning and to prevent them from dropping out of school. To this end, they receive help with their homework and targeted tutoring in various subjects so that they can successfully complete their schooling.
In addition to the educational activities, the children have a meal together and then take part in exercise games in the garden or artistic activities that encourage their creativity and offer them space for rest and balance.
