Call for participants - The Creanimators

Are you a Don Bosco animator who can’t wait for the summer of 2017 to get active in the activities with your oratory, youth centre or playground? You want to develop new games to play? You always wanted to get to know what Don Bosco animators in other countries are doing during summer? You are planning to take part in DBYN’s summer exchange of animators in 2017?
 
‘The Creanimators’ is a 6-day European training course for (international) animators, where you can meet animators from over 15 European countries. As all the participants will be animators locally active on playgrounds and in youth centres, we are bringing together a wealth of animation experience in the form of games, energizers, ice-breakers, story-telling ... You will be able to share your own “culture” in animation and learn from the others. You will also be introduced to new methods from the COMPASS manuals, and develop new approaches how to bring the methods from COMPASS to the practice on a summer playground, summer camp or summer oratorio/youth club. The training doesn’t end with the training course itself. You will be also stepping into a vlogging campaign, and be creating new games which we will use to develop a new games APP for animators.
 
The TC takes place at the Savio House in Bollington (UK). The training course will take place from the 16th of April until the 23rd of April 2017. As this would mean that you are to travel on Easter Sunday, we will also foresee the possibility to arrive 1 day before and join the local community for Easter celebrations.
