Sati Pasala or How to Practice Mindfulness

Sati Pasala Rockhampton (Mindful School Rockhampton)

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.
