On 18 to 20 February, 45 Nalanda Dhamma School students started their school holidays meaningfully with a stay-in programme in Wisdom Park.  Over the 3 days, students explored the theme of “Blessings in Life” to better understanding the true blessings as taught by the Buddha. May the teenagers continue to maintain high spirits in learning and practising the wise teachings of the Buddha. Sadhu anumodana!

On 3 to 4 February, Nalanda members were privileged to host 11 monks from the ‘Sangha Theravada Indonesia’ (STI) and 5 Indonesian friends on a visit to Nalanda.  The monks hailed from various provinces across the Indonesian islands, where they have been serving the local communities under the guidance of the Sangha Governance Council of STI. May venerable sirs be blessed with good health, and success in their noble endeavours.  “Salam metta dari umat Nalanda”.

On the first day of the year, Nalandians warmly welcomed Venerable Ajahn Vajiro to Wisdom Park, his first visit to the educational campus.   Nalanda Youth leaders and members took the opportunity to seek his advice as part of their annual Fuel-up Camp to prepare themselves for the year ahead.

Over the long weekend from 24 to 26 December, over 100 participants and volunteers gathered for the inaugural ‘Dhamma-Living Camp for Families’ at Wisdom Park. This family camp turned into an extraordinary opportunity for parents and children to bond with each other as they explored the theme “Gratitude is My Attitude”.

Our first Dhamma-living Camp for Families concluded on 26 December after 3 days of joyous learning and family bonding. Thank you all for this marvelous camp!
