Our Community is an educational programme designed for pupils in cycles 3.1 and 3.2 (aged 8 to 10), helping them discover how their local community works and better understand the role each individual plays in society.

Through 5 interactive units, delivered in the classroom by a volunteer from the professional world, children explore a range of topics related to their everyday lives: how a municipality functions, different professions, the production of goods and services, the role of public authorities, collective decision-making, as well as money and economic exchanges.

Through playful activities, role-playing and practical exercises, pupils discover how their community works while developing their sense of initiative, teamwork skills and sense of responsibility.
