“Thank you so much for the experience yesterday. The session was easy to connect to and hear.  The level of interaction, through asking questions and the postcard activity, was good for engagement. The chosen images were interesting and led to some rich discussion.”  Grade 4-6 Teacher, Daylesford Dharma School
