School and other group visits
Visit us
Maitreya Centre has a residential community of 1 nun and 3 lay people living together as a spiritual community to help each other learn and practise Buddha's teachings. Buddhism is a way of life here. We know the benefits of using these methods to keep a peaceful and happy mind and we want to share our understanding.
Weekday afternoons are the times we can most easily host groups. We try to be open for anyone to visit every day between 10am and 5pm.
We offer Buddha's teachings freely, but to help us provide the facility we might ask for a donation. If you want to stay for a few hours and go in to more depth and detail, that can be arranged. We can provide simple refreshments if wanted.
We can visit you
Alternatively we can visit you to give a talk, guide some meditation or just answer questions on whatever you might be interested in. If you have a particular area of interest, perhaps related to a curriculum, we will be happy to talk about how we can help. As schools seem to be experiencing some 'difficulties with money' karma ripening we'll state now that we don't charge to send someone to your school. However donations are welcome.
Classes for RE teachers
We would be happy to help RE teachers understand Buddhism better. If you are interested let us know and we will arrange something mutually convenient.
