We wish also that you feel at ease with the frames of collective life (organisation, rules, sanctions…) and their application with young people from 4 to 16 years old.
What is Civic Service
It is open to young people up to 25 years old, without diplomas condition, who have the nationality from a Member State of the European Union or European Economic Area – or justify legal residence in France of more than one year.

A short presentation in english
The official website of Service Civique, in French :
Your CV and a personal message in French or in English to share the meaning it would have for you to take part in the association activities.
We hope to welcome you for a few days in immersion school before June 28, so that you can become familiar with how the school functions on a daily basis before deciding together on your commitment.
(Following the feedback from the 2 people in Civic Service this year: indeed the life of the school leads to question many beliefs and habits, and the summer will give you the time to prepare for it.)
See you soon !
