For animal lovers, a small alpaca hike is on the agenda, providing a delightful way to connect with nature and learn about these charming creatures.

Meanwhile, in the state of Sachsen-Anhalt, the Easter holidays in 2025 mark a pivotal chance for students to gain valuable work experience. The state is promoting voluntary student internships in crafts, agriculture, and forestry through the Praktikumsprämie, a financial incentive designed to encourage practical experience among young people.
For students aged 15 and older, the Praktikumsprämie offers a notable €120 per week for voluntary internships during school holidays, with the ability to apply for up to four weeks of internships each year. This initiative not only empowers students to gain practical experience but also serves as a stepping stone in their professional journeys, providing valuable insight and direction for their future careers.
The financial investment in these internships includes a total of €450,000 dedicated to supporting young talents within the region, reflecting Sachsen-Anhalt’s commitment to addressing skills shortages in various sectors. Students are encouraged to reach out directly to participating businesses for internship opportunities.
The prospects of gathering real-world skills and the financial support through the Praktikumsprämie not only benefit students but also provide an opportunity for businesses to identify potential future apprentices, helping to secure their workforce's sustainability in the face of growing demand.
In summary, both Goslar's Easter holiday pass and Sachsen-Anhalt's Praktikumsprämie showcase the dedication of local governments to facilitate enriching experiences for youth during the Easter holidays. Whether through creative play or practical work experiences, these initiatives emphasize the importance of nurturing the next generation through engaging, educational, and fun-filled opportunities.
