EDUCATION RENEWAL RETREAT

FOR PARENTS AND EDUCATORS

Saturday August 24th 9am - Sunday August 25th 3pm

This retreat is offered by the Phoenix Initiative teachers in partnership with EduCareDo.

What capacities do children need to face the unknown future? How can we support the growth and development of these capacities within education in our homes and classrooms?

Creativity, flexibility, steadfastness, loving warmth, peace, and equilibrium are some of the necessary soul-spiritual capacities that require strengthening within us in our roles as parents and educators.

Over the course of the retreat, we will share in questions, discussion and experiences that support and nourish our soul-spiritual work with children as we grow and develop alongside them.
