The Abiding Heart Educationā¢ļø approach is centred on transformative experiential Buddhist learning for kindergarten through to class 8. Our Teacher Training Centre offers full-time and part-time kindergarten and primary teacher training, Buddhist foundation studies, and short courses.
By fusing Buddhist worldview, meditation and application with Waldorf methodology and science, we have created a unique childrenās transformative pedagogy that gives equal weight to the intellectual, affective and action domains. Our education approach rests on a Buddhist paradigm and the emphasis is on developing wisdom and compassion that is to be lived in the classroom and in oneās personal life.
The transformative approach to learning nurtures the childrenās changing consciousness and fosters autonomy and ownership in teachers. All aspects of learning and knowing are inter-linked and, by bringing about a shift in how children learn and experience the world, we advocate for self-transformation.
