Nnott-sheep
This group is for home-educators or those considering home-educating in the Retford-Sherwood Dukeries Area covering North Notts- North West Lincs- South East Yorkshire and yonder. The group has been set up to provide a forum and activities calendar where we can work together to educate and socialise our children. We share information on local resources, organise social and educational trips and meetings, and provide a mutual support forum to discuss, help and advise on all matters concerning home-education in our area. We also have a group for all home educating parents of special needs/differently abled children in and around Nottinghamshire county. This group is also open to families with children currently attending school but actively considering home education. You are of course most welcome to join both.
