Assembly
The Dhamma school assembly is held with the participation of pupils, teachers and parents. The beginning session starts by the offering of flowers, lights, incense and gilanpasa. For the worshiping and offering, the Vandana and chanting book will be used to chant stanzas. Briefly, a 5 minute mindfulness session is conducted by one of our venerable monks allowing pupils to improve concentration. After the mindfulness session, children will watch a moral Buddhist story which is displayed in a Screen.
"The heart is like a garden. It can grow compassion or fear, hatred or love" What seeds will you plant there?
