Zenned Out!
Posted by: lukehenryfrancis, in Higher RMPS, Intermediate2 RMPS, Knox Academy
Apologies for the lack of posts over the past few days - life is becoming increasingly busy. This weekend we took Higher RMPS pupils to Samye Ling.
Samye Ling is a Buddhist Monastery in the Scottish Borders. I think I can speak for both staff and pupils when I say this, we had a fantastic time (despite the predictability of the Scottish weather). Pupils were able to interview a monk, get a tour of the impressive temple and try out some Buddhist meditation. For someone who is not used to such exploits I think I did pretty well (despite falling asleep during lying meditation). For teachers interested in taking pupils to Samye Ling, visit www.samyeling.org.

Sounds like a great trip. Did you go for two days or was it just a day trip? Any photos? Ollie

It was a truly fine time - despite having to get up earlier than I would have had to had I been at work! The pupils were a credit to themselves and the school.
