About Roushini
My name is Roushini and I am a proud Indian/Australian. I have spent over four, fun filled decades, working with children as an educator, cultural artist/collaborator, entertainer, author and storyteller.
As a mother of two daughters and grandma of three, I love watching how young minds are endlessly brimming with curiosity and that they are so willing to take on new ideas and immediately apply it to the world around them.
It is fascinating therefore I find myself truly passionate in my pursuit to create and deliver high quality learning experiences for children; from new born to 12 years of age.
I have dedicated over 21 years to design and create original cultural learning and health & well-being incursion presentations for children as well as youth and adults.
For your convenience, 12 popular presentations are now available ONLINE and is easily accessiable from this webiste.
Meanwhile I have also found time to write and publish two wonderful books, both of which are based on the learnings from my own culture – The Magical Rainbow Inside You and My Mummy Tickles My Rainbow.
