In part, these were already applied and tested during four exchanges of the TRAMP project and other related projects and are therefore briefly outlined here. A further list provides additional ideas, which offer no practical experiences regarding their implementation. Intended beneficiaries and cooperation partners of the project work include schools, school camps, nurseries or other educational facilities. • Construction of swings: assembly of components, digging the earth, concrete mixing, encasing structural parts in concrete, finishing touches • • • Tool shed / barbecue hut: The construction of a tool shed for toys and work tools or a barbecue hut can be achieved either by a complete construction kit from a DIY store or with pre-ordered squared lumbers and boards along with wood and roofing felt for the roof. If possible, the space in front of the shed or hut can be fitted with benches, shelves or cabinets. The ground is tiled beforehand. If desired, a barbecue space could also be built. Decoration of school yard walls: If necessary, the walls are cleaned with high pressure washers and undercoated with paint. Motifs can be selected or designed by the young and elderly beforehand. School logos are also well suited as motifs. The motifs can be enlarged and projected onto the wall by a projector and then sketched out. The outline drawings can subsequently be painted with colours. Environmental improvements: Construction and repair of benches and tables in seniors’ centres, improvement of garden and design of a play area for boules. The result was an improved environment for the leisure activities of the elderly. In Prague, for example, renovations were carried out on Set of Methods 123
TRAMP – Transnational Mobility of Older People in Europe • • • • • • • • • 124 Part II the KLAS building: the fence, the main door and windows were repainted, which extends lifetime and aesthetic appearance of the building and increases the protection of the KLAS premises. Construction of a puppet stage: A wooden stage is built, which is high enough to stand behind and perform with hand puppets. The stage can be painted with colours and/or covered with fabric. The construction includes minor decorations and the manufacture of props for plays. At the same time a smaller group of children and elderly can make hand puppets from papier mâché and fabric and/or prepare a (self-written) puppet stage play. Tasks include making drafts, cutting and assembly of wooden boards and colour design. Yet another group can practise and perform the stage play. Working with fabric: In this group silk painting techniques are taught and motifs for scarves and postcards designed and implemented. Printing of T-shirts with self-made motifs or the school logo is also a suitable feature. Tasks include the selection of motifs, introduction to the technique as well as the tightening and painting of scarves. International cooking: Cooking for all participants can take place in the school kitchen using the home or regional recipes of the elderly. This can also include snacks for project breaks. In addition to learning how to prepare meals, adolescents can also learn how to serve meals and how to clear the tables. Furthermore, the purchase, preparation and serving of beverages and snacks for the breaks can be organised in the form of a school café. Gardening: Old and young can work together and plant trees and flower beds on the school or nursery premises or the school garden. Soil preparation, compost collection, raised beds or the restoration/construction of greenhouses are possible forms of gardening. Puppet design: In Prague, puppets were made and painted on silk and tiffany products handcrafted. The products were sold at a UNICEF stand during a school function and the proceeds were donated to finance child vaccinations in Africa. Construction of sales stands: For the sale of (self-made) objects, wooden tables can be sawn, edged, varnished or painted. Playground assignments: Depending on the demand, a new construction or the renovation of existing playgrounds can be of interest. This includes ground preparations, assembly of playground devices, encasing in concrete and/or polishing and painting of playground devices. Sports facilities: Some areas can be excavated for a sandpit or a beach vol- leyball court, then filled with sand and provided with markings, margins etc. Larger areas possibly require prior preparation with a digger. Another feature involves the setup of basketball equipment. Wooden figures for the schoolyard fence: Fences on school or nursery premises can be decorated with wooden figures, which are designed, transferred onto wood, cut out and painted beforehand. Motifs could relate to local features of the town or the school.
