Our Son-Rise OutReach


We had a brilliant 2 days with Son-Rise teacher Sean Fitzgerald. He spent two days with our family and our two volunteers providing us with invaluable feedback on our program with Felicity. Felicity thought it was all pretty special. She had all "her people" together and she was the centre of it all. We played, watched each of us in action, did feedback, had feedback and challenged our limiting beliefs. We remembered how amazing our program for Felicity is and how much she touches all our lives as we continue her program. I reflected on how much I have personally changed since we first started four years ago and how good we have all gotten at playing and celebrating. I feel peaceful after this OutReach (this is our third with Sean over 3 years) and feel that we are travelling solidly in the right direction. Felicity is so happy and Sean commented that she is loving people, which is nothing short of amazing since this could have been so different. I continue to learn and grow through this program and feel blessed to have had the opportunity once again for an OutReach. The team is refreshed with a new set of tools and ideas up our sleeves to experiment and play with. (The photo is of her outdoor play area... here she likes to throw... over and over.... it is a developmental "ISM" for her, strengthening her co-ordination and gross motor skills. We build on this motivation of hers making it into crazy fun games)
