From the Principal – Timor-Leste reflections

In the 1939 movie, The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy says to her dog, “Toto, I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.” It’s a phrase that has come to mean that we have stepped outside of what is considered normal; we have entered a place or circumstance that is unfamiliar and uncomfortable; basically we have found ourselves outside our comfort zone. When was the last time you felt like that? How did you feel? How did you cope? How did you adapt to this significant change in environment? I present these ideas and ask these questions having just returned from two weeks in Timor-Leste with a group of dedicated staff and 13 incredible young men.
