FEDERAL PRECIOUS MAGIC We are delighted to share an opportunity for Years 10 – 12 girls to experience a creativity & self-expression workshop in the Northern Rivers this coming school holidays. We understand this season can be an especially tumultuous time for our young girls, as they ask big questions and make pivotal decisions about their lives, and we are so excited to offer Precious Magic, to guide them on their path. Precious Magic is a co-creation by creatives and entrepreneurs Jae Schaefer and Lauren Renee, who crossed paths through their shared journeys of embodiment and becoming frst-time authors. Both former journalists, highly creative and deeply intuitive women, Lauren and Jae share the journey of putting their creativity into a career box, only to later realise the path of true wellbeing required them to shed ideas about what was expected of them and become who they truly are. Through the offering of Precious Magic, Lauren and Jae come with the intention to share the wisdom they gained by trusting the power of their creative dreams and paving an aligned path for their unique creativity and self-expression. The intention of this workshop is to support young women in choosing senior electives and a path after school aligned with their natural talents, by deepening their connection with their inner knowing, as well as offering tools to move through emotions using creativity and self-expression. Having worked with women of different ages to bring more joy, clarity, wholeheartedness and peace into their daily lives and experiences, we look forward to creating with the next generation of young women. Students interested in being a part of this experience can fnd out more, and book their ticket here – Precious Magic ~ an intuitive activation journey for young women, Federal, Mon 3rd Oct 2022, 10:00 am – 3:00 pm AEDT | Humanitix GOONELLABAH TABLE TENNIS AT GOONELLABAH Tuesday and Thursday mornings social playing: 9am-12noon; Monday and Wednesday nights social playing: 7-9pm; Training Monday mornings: 9am12noon; Junior coaching after school Wednesday 3.30pm-4.45pm, $6 a session.
