Families gather on Sundays to enhance their learning.

The happiest times we recollect as a family are when we are involved in doing something wholesome and caring together.  At Nalanda Education & Outreach Centre in Happy Garden, students of Family Dhamma School gather on Sundays to do just that, accruing many days of joyful moments in the company of each other, facilitators and good spiritual friends.

Since its inception in March this year, both parents and children have been building their foundation in Dhamma, through learning sessions, hands-on interactions, service and reflections.  Each session is anchored with meditation and chanting together, and is completed with a simple lunch meal served by fellow family members.

The classes start with meditation, offerings and chanting.

We rejoice in the spirited learning of our families, and continue to cheer them on as they progress in family and mental well-being.  Sadhu!
