A new year of Whole Hearted Home Educators!

Hi friends, we have started the 2015-2016 year of our WHHE meetings, all are welcome. If you need an address to the meeting location, please email cldorman (at) sympatico (dot) ca.

This year we are reading through Educating the WholeHearted Child by Clay and Sally Clarkson.

We meet every six weeks to discuss topics related to the book we are studying, which include themes such as: home education (of course), faith, Charlotte Mason's philosophies and how they can be embraced, home discipleship, raising WholeHearted children, and whatever we feel is pressing in the hearts and minds of those gathered together.  *You don't need to own a copy of the book to attend!  Feel free to join any meeting at any time. We are a group here to offer support and encouragement to one another.
