Rites of Passage Programme Workshop

On July 7-8 we held the first of eight two day workshops that are part of our Young Adult Rites of Passsage Programme. Click on the photos for more information about the workshop. Thank you so much to our partner, Novalis Ubuntu Institute, for providing the venue through non-monetary exchange. Thank you to our sponsors, Knead Bakery Muizenberg and Empire Cafe for donating bread and soup. Thank you to our volunteer, a mentor to one of the participants, Olivia Coetzee for sharing her story and supporting the weekend process in many ways. Thank you to Damian Holt for logistical support. 


Our candle for the children within us had animal crackers as well but they disappeared before we could even properly light the candle so they would never find their way in to the photograph.

The last activity of the weekend was called "River of Life" where you tell your story through a river.

Each participant painted the River to look at their own life, and began to look at how they have found belonging, independence, mastery and generosity in their lives.

After painting we told the stories of our rivers and the stories of creating the rivers.
