Education
For Teachers
The Norwich Buddhist Centre welcomes booked visits from educational and community groups of all ages, from primary and secondary schools to universities, colleges and teacher training groups. We are also happy to visit your school or college and aim to tailor visits to the particular learning needs and interests of your children and students.
There is a suggested donation, for visits to the Buddhist Centre or to your school, of £55 plus any travelling expenses incurred. (And a suggested donation of £110 if we're visiting your school for the whole day). However these are not set fees and shouldn't be prohibitive.
To find out more about arranging a school visit, please:

For Parents & Children
We are not able to offer classes for children but our bookshop stocks DVDs (including The Monkey King, CDs, and books appropriate for childre, as well as books on mindful parenting.
We do not currently have a monthly parents group that meets at the centre, but there is always the possibility another one will form. Contact the Centre if you'd be interested in participating in such a group.
Clear Vision
Clear Vision is an audio-visual project that looks after Triratna's image and video archives as well as produces resources for schools and develops engaging resources for young Buddhists. Visit www.clear-vision.org/youngpeople for a steadily growing collection of free Dharma materials: games, quizzes and carefully selected links to Buddhist projects around the world, including two sets of interactive video-based materials.
This website includes interactive story books, videos and pictures. It also has a feature called Ask a Buddhist!, in which Buddhists from a range of UK traditions answer some of the questions most commonly asked of Buddhists.
Free Buddhist Audio
Free Buddhist Audio is the home of our online service of sound and text archives of the Triratna Buddhist Community. Here we distribute our collections as we make digital versions of them, and it's where you'll also find community users from all over the world uploading their own archives.
We hope you'll enjoy our selection of talks, interviews, seminars, and question-and-answer sessions from the early 1960s to the present day. You can also find guided meditations to listen to at home.
The site is free, but do consider making a donation when you download a track so we can keep this resource available to all.
