Yeh, it's lovely, the kids had a fantastic time and played for ages there. We had it all to ourselves for a while so that felt quiet special. They have done a wonderfull job with the hanging pine cones and the whole feel of the place is lovely.

I realise that I am slightly out of your area and this may be a bit of a cheek, but your site is exactly what I am looking for and I wondered if you could please help me. Only two of my children now attend 'state' school and I am horrifed to learn how little they do compared to when my son in particular was home educated and I am now looking for a reputable tutor for GCSE HIstory and GCSE French in Exeter and wondered if anybody knows of one? Thank you

I thought I would ask this question to help me, but also for others who are just about to take the leap into home educating!
When you veterans first started, did you panic and think "what am I doing?" and what was your first lesson like with your child/children?

Hi there and welcome to H.G.K.
I think you will get a wide range of answers to this question as everyone that home educates seems to do it in their own individual way.
When I first started home edding I was wondering what I was going to do as my child got older and the education needed to step up a gear . I did worry at first but as soon as I met up with other home educating families I was fine.
I think all home educating families are prone to that moment of 'panic' when you suddenly wonder "what am I doing", it helps to have other home educators who you can talk to.
Its a good idea to go along to some local groups to get an idea of whats going on in your area. Your local E.O. contact would be able to help you further.
Hope this helps you with your thoughts, all the best Becky

I meant to do this last week... but a week is a long time in swimbridge.
Wasn't this guy amazing? I so enjoyed the time I was able to spend in his company - how blessed we were to have a good story teller come to visit. - especially one in leather trousers.. I can't remember when I laughed so much (not at the trousers, they were seriously serious). A professional weaver of wonderful tales, a bard in the ancient magical sense, a trickster and an entertainer who brought some real life to our children's ears - I loved him.
I hope he inspired the youngsters as much as he inspired me...

I have just stumbled on a home educating web ring / blog ring. This is all new to me , I don't read or write other peoples blogs but ive had a quick look at a few of the home ed blogs and some of them make quiet good reading.
Anyway, this is the web page address where I started , http://www.ringsurf.com/ring_browser.php?id=985860
there is a box on each page , its background is green and it says -
Home-Ed UK Blogring
[ Join | Ring Hub | Random | Previous | Next ]
this is what I used to go to the other blogs. Becky X

Hi everyone!
I thought I did this earlier, but perhaps not ... if it pops up elsewhere don't be surprised.
I was recently sent an article titled 'A Class Apart' by Rob Blackhurst that appeared in the FT last weekend - it makes interesting reading for us types, and you can check it out on the FT website.
