We warmly invite all parents and guardians to join us for a discussion and information session exploring Quaker beliefs, practices and values, and how they are central to The Friends’ School.
These interactive and reflective sessions are a wonderful opportunity to deepen your understanding of what it means to be a Quaker school, how students engage with Quaker values, and how spiritual practices such as silence and Gatherings support the wellbeing and development of young people.
Led by members of our staff, including Quaker Gathering Advisor Jess Dundas and Quaker Advisor Mark Macleod, the session will include:
- Exploring the practice of silence
- What makes The Friends’ School a Quaker school?
- Insights into the origins of Quakerism and its relevance in today’s world
- An introduction to SPICEE – our core values: Simplicity, Peace, Integrity, Community, Equality and Earthcare.
- An overview of Gatherings – a unique and deeply meaningful part of school life
Thursday 4 September | 5:30pm (tea/coffee from 5:15pm)
Or
Tuesday 9 September | 9:00am (tea/coffee from 8:45am)
These events will run over two dates - please join whichever session suits your schedule – both will follow a similar format. There is no cost to attend this event, however, please book using the link provided.
