Home Educator Sessions

Home schooling families are welcome to visit as individuals or as part of a home education community or group.

During Home Educator sessions we relax the age groups so that older and younger siblings can attend our schools' events together. While the content and style of the session is targeted at KS2 (Age 7+), it's still a great opportunity for socialising and networking with other Home Educators in the area.

Children must be Reception age 4/5 and above to participate.

Home Educators monthly sessions:

Reusing, recycling and conservation: Learn about how we can all live more sustainably by recycling, reusing and conserving the Earth’s resources.

Explore the effects of pollution in the water through a hands on experiment and write your own plastic pledge.
