Teachers in training!
On the last day of holidays we hosted 20 teachers for continued training and development. It was a great day, exploring what had opened up since their last development workshop, and then deepening the skills of conflict resolution. Questions were answered, technicalities explained, new insights explored and shared. My sense is that an awareness was cultivated that by increasing our consciousness and communication skills, we can radically change our classroom environment and the quality of our interactions with ALL people surrounding us. That’s right, RADICALLY change the quality of those interactions! And it is possible and not only for the elite Gurus out there, but accessible to each and every one of us.
Some Feedback
What an amazing day. Through the skill training and role playing I really got that these skills can make a huge difference to me in my life, let alone in the classroom. Why weren't we taught these in college?
and another
I had heard about the Synergy Schooling Approach before, but after coming here today I can actually see (and experience) that this is what education is actually all about. People, people, people. And to increase the quality of these relationships, we need to increase our awareness levels and our communication skills. I am so excited to come back and learn more!
Transforming 50 Teachers at a time!
SynEDy Training held a 4 day workshop for 52 teachers based on coaching and empowerment training. These teachers came from local and national schools to experience the possibility of making a difference to their own lives, as well as the lives of the children they teach.
This project falls under the Synergy Vision of transforming teachers into passionate individuals who really know how to consciously make a difference to the lives of the children in their care.
Parent Sharing after the Esteem Workshop
Hi Robin
I just want to say thank you very much for an incredibly insightful and powerful workshop over the last 7 weeks. What I've learnt has been incredible and armed me with tools that I never realised were out there. We all strive to be better parents but with a slight shift of vision we can really attain this goal and guide our children to be successful adults.
I have found it challenging and sometimes incredibly difficult to put in place what I've learnt but when it's worked, it certainly has been so rewarding to see the results and the positive responses from the kids. It's going to be a journey but armed with those amazing tools that I've amassed during these 7 weeks, it's going to be quite a ride. As I said this morning, it's not only affected my relationship with my kids but with my work colleagues, friends, family and husband.
Again, thanks very much Robin.... you certainly know your stuff and I'm humbled by the deep insight, thought and passion that goes into your work. I'm certainly privileged to be part of the Synergy team !

After Self Esteem workshop
A heartfelt sharing from a couple after doing the Nurturing of Self Esteem course.
After Teacher Training session
"I really want to thank you for your inspiring workshop and training again today! This is such powerful stuff and it really opened up some new possibilities for me; for my project AND for my private life!
I am so impressed and inspired by the way you communicate with people, how you attract everyones attention, how you make sure that everybody's feeling heard, how not-judgmental you are, and how empowerend you are to others!"
This sharing goes to show one main thing. These skills of how to listen to people, how to make them feel heard, and how to open up possibilities is just something we can all learn to do.
Presented to parents at a Blouberg School
Many schools ask Robin to do a presentation for the parents of their school such that the parents walk away understanding how important their role as parents is. There is a belief that the school's job is to discipline the children and teach the core values that are needed. These talks aim at supporting parents in skills at making a difference in the home environment such that their child benefits directly.
"Robin, thanks for an eye-opener talk! I had never really considered that parenting is something which could be learned or improved on in such a conscious way. Now I am hungry for more! Thanks."

Thoughts by one of the Students after the workshop
Robin also taught us a very valuable lesson in life, to always think about what we do or what we want to do before we actually say or do it, because it could (or can) lead to things and consequences we really didn't want. It became clear that what you say can actually turn into your reality. That is the thing that stood out for me for the rest of that workshop.
So this year has started personally for me on a very high note and it will end in one. We were motivated and got words of inspiration from the best to keep our heads high throughout the year and to never give up. That is because “Tsiba Eden Is a Brand Name”
Come what may 2010 we are ready for you!!!!!!!!!!!!
