Rahamim Ecological Learning Centre - Archive

Rahamim Ecological Learning Centre is a beautiful heritage building set amid established grounds, perched on 'St Josephs Mount', overlooking Bathurst city. Formerly known as 'Logan Brae', this grand building has been a family home, a nunnery and a Mercy and Justice Centre over the years.

Rahamim co-ordinates an extensive workshop program alongside its ongoing work with refugees, the UN council on climate change, and the provision of ecological resources for the wider Bathurst community.
