What we’re about
We are a community of parents helping parents, supported by caregivers and educators passionate about delivering a fun, high-quality experience for our children through home education. We are also pulling together as a community to leverage the powers of community, financial freedom, owning our own land and everything on it, and exercising our god given liberties.
#### What We Offer
The parents, with support, run events across the Greater London area for home-ed families. Whether you’re:
- A parent interested in home education,
- Have an existing group of parents and want to be a part of the community,
- or simply want to offer support to parents, please join and make yourself known!
Our parent group welcomes everyone—veteran home educators, or those planning to home educate in the future, lets together create:
- Support opportunities and useful resources,
- Experience and Learning opportunities,
- Educational field trips.
#### Our Core Principles
We are guided by these values:
- Fun! and interest-driven learning and experiences - the most effective way to learn,
- Minimal or no screen time – our preference for a balanced childhood,
- Peaceful learning – creating space for emotional growth,
- Freedom of play – prioritising enjoyment and creativity,
- Broad world understanding – exploring diverse perspectives,
- Hands-on experiences – art, music, and practical activities,
- Effective learning skills – teaching children how to learn,
- Contextual awareness – understanding different viewpoints,
- Age-appropriate life skills – money, health, politics, and independence.

An event ambassador helps with passing on event notices like cancellations, time changes or special happenings regarding the event. The best people to be event ambassadors are parents and the real host or organiser of the event, but especially the parents who attend!

Generally, during school holidays, the group is exclusively open to HE families between 10-12, and the site is also open to all families from 12-2.

Reminders!
The site is designed for children aged 6 and over. Younger children are welcome and need to be supervised by their adults.
Due to food allergies, all food must be consumed outside - no food inside the hall.
Children are not allowed in the kitchen and grown-ups can make their own cups of coffee or tea as long as they bring their own resources as the milk, sugar etc.
We need to all work together to tidy the site at the end of the session to ensure it’s left as we found it. Tidy-up time is at 12:45PM and we must vacate the premises before 1 PM.
Thanks!
