TCS Writing Oasis 2023
TCS Writing Oasis 2023
Online evening sessions - real time and all recorded

It’s not too late to join this series which returns by popular demand. It particularly appeals to practising celebrants wanting to expand their creativity and ability to respond to the stories that are shared with them during ceremony development. A oasis is “a pleasant or peaceful area or period in the midst of a difficult or hectic place or situation”. This series of three Zoom sessions creates such an Oasis, providing the opportunity to explore and refresh your craft as a ceremony writer! Our facilitator is acclaimed Australian celebrant and coach, Wendy Haynes, whose books and presentations have been popular with celebrants internationally.

Writing Oasis 2023 sessions will occur via Zoom. Participants enrol for the series, with the greatest benefit being gained through attendance in real time. However, we appreciate that ‘life happens’, so a recording of any missed sessions is made available.

DATES:
Wednesday 30 August – recording available
Tuesday 26 September – 7.15 – 9.00pm (NZT)
Tuesday 31 October – 7.15 – 9.00pm (NZT)
Previous groups have loved the catalyst these sessions provide.

All celebrants are welcome – whether you are newer or more experienced in the role; have previously trained with The Celebrant School, or not; belong to Celebrants Aotearoa, or not. You are warmly invited to join us and explore the organic unfolding of your own creativity – an experience that will be both rich and refreshing for you as a celebrant.

Celebrant Training at The Celebrant School NZ
TCS Graduation 2023
Sunday, 5th November at 4pm

This will occur by Zoom on Sunday 5th November at 4pm and all graduands from 2023 and their whānau and friends are warmly invited.

Complete the details below to RSVP (confirming whether you are attending or not).

In previous years, graduates have gathered their family and other supporters who have helped them through their studies, to create celebration “pods” at home. This year we are all quite widely spread geographically, but if there are other grads near you, you may like to meet up for an informal meal/drinks afterwards. Please consider initiating this in your area, if appropriate. It’s a great complement to online study!

We’d love to have you join us for Graduation – a time to celebrate your achievement with this special cohort who have studied entirely online and with all the complexities of Covid and distance learning! Well done YOU!
