"Know this, my friends: In the midst of worldwide meltdown, shutdown, stress, challenge, weirdness, and fear there is also light, love, kinship, hope, and learning. Or at least the possibility of it. Our choice. Always." – Mitch Ditkoff
Before restrictions on gatherings were put into place, five ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ staff members (Ms Gulhan, Ms Tanya, Ms Ayesha, Ms Noori and Ms Najma) and 4 members of our local Whittlesea Interfaith Network (WIN) attended a Wisdom Circle Facilitator Training workshop at Al ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ. The workshop was skilfully led by Mitch who has been visiting our school several times since 2017 to coach and train staff as an external consultant from the States.
Mitch has written about our interfaith Wisdom Circle training in a blog post which we would like to share with our community:
