28/01/2014: Chinese New Year

The sun was shining brightly this morning as we started our latest meeting in Okeford Fitzpaine. We were a little light on the toy front but had lots of other activities to enjoy.

This was our first time in our new hall. It was slightly intimidating walking into that large space not really sure where to put everything. But we quickly settled in, got the toys out and muddled our way through the session.

Tuesday 14th January: Resource Share

Do you have a home education book that you love? A preferred brand for workbooks? Or even an all in one curriculum? If so please bring them to our next meeting on Tuesday 14th January 2014 so that we can all have a browse over the many resources that are available to home educators. Whether it's learn to read booklets or a set of cuisenaire rods we would love to see them.

One issue with home education can be sourcing products or simply not knowing where to start when there are so many options available. Purchasing items on line can sometimes make for expensive mistakes. This is an opportunity to share our favourite, or perhaps worst, items.

With a new hall and lots of new ideas being generated for the next term I am expecting the our first meeting to be a little disorganised but hopefully we'll have fun with the chaos.

The session starts from 10am, I hope to see you there!

New Year, New Hall

Our new location, Okeford Fitzpaine village hall.

I hope that you have had lots of fun throughout the festive season. Now that we're in the new year I'm finding that I'm itching get on with lots of new projects.
