Amal Elsana Ahl’jooj, a Bedouin feminist, came to speak to our girls and talk about overcoming societal, personal, familial and international barriers to becoming who you are meant to be.
Laura Donna, a scent consultant came to involve our girls in an interactive workshop to share the joys of fragrance. Laura is a fragrance educator and coach, she has donated this experiential activity for the girls to learn the language of scent and discover a new world of enjoyment.
