Rockhampton Sati Pasala (RSP) is an overseas branch of Sati Pasala Foundation, located in Central Queensland in Australia. The RSP started in 2017 with 10 to 15 children and 3 facilitators. At the start, two hourly in-house mindfulness programs were conducted in English medium every month with a smooth growth in numbers until April 2020.
Opening up new door-ways to opportunities and a paradigm shift occurred in RSP in April 2020 with COVID 19 challenges. These includes:
- Change in monthly in-house programs to weekly online programs via ZOOM
- Children taking a leading role in organising and chairing interactive online sessions
- More focus on day-today general mindfulness activities and mindful games
- Online report writing and submission by children
- Children joining from other part of the Australia as well other countries to online sessions
- Most Ven. U. Dhammajiva Maha Thero or Ven. P. Sunandananda Thero join in for Q&A session and talks
Rockhampton Sati Pasala has 5 adult facilitators and 15 children now and conducts various other events such as school holiday mindfulness programs and other events. You can contact Rockhampton Sati Pasala by emailing to sathipasela.rockhampton@gmail.com and all English speaking children are warmly welcome to join the Sunday program.
