β›ˆοΈπŸŒ… A huge thank you to everyone who braved the weather and joined us last night!

Who'd have thought that, on the eve of a heatwave, our gathering would be hit with a rather dramatic downpour?! πŸ˜†

Thankfully, those who channelled their inner ducks and ignored the forecast were rewarded... the rain eased, the sky brightened and we still managed a wonderfully wholesome evening with good company, picnics and plenty of laughs πŸ’›

Thank you to everyone who came and refused to be defeated by a bit of British summer! Same time next year... though we'll be putting in a request for the deluxe sunshine package next time πŸ˜‚πŸŒž

πŸŒ… Summer Solstice Picnic at Chesterton Windmill 🌞

Join us for a very special evening get-together as we gather to celebrate the Summer Solstice with our home ed community πŸ’›

This was one of our favourite meet-ups of the whole year last summer... a truly wholesome evening spent chatting, playing, sharing food and watching the sun go down together. We're so excited to do it all again!

The forecast is looking glorious β˜€οΈ so pack up a picnic dinner, grab a blanket or camping chair, and come and enjoy a relaxed evening in one of the most beautiful spots in Warwickshire.

Feel free to bring along any outdoor games, balls or musical instruments you'd like to share with the group too.

Whether you fancy a kickabout, a game with friends, some music, or simply sitting and soaking up the atmosphere, there'll be plenty of space to enjoy the evening your own way 😊

As our previous art session here was sadly rained off, we'll also bring along some materials for anyone who would like to have a go at painting the landscape. No pressure at all to take part... just a little creative opportunity for those who fancy it 🎨

With a bit of luck, we'll be treated to a beautiful sunset in a truly stunning setting πŸŒ…

Evening all! πŸ’›

We’re really looking forward to tomorrow's meet-up at Ufton Nature Reserve... we hope you are too! 🌲

Please meet in the car park at 1pm. We'll set off as a group shortly afterwards, heading through the gate on the right-hand side of the car park and along the woodland path, gathering materials for our nature collages as we go.

Please bring a bag or basket to collect interesting leaves, sticks, feathers and any other natural treasures you find along the way πŸƒ

Once we reach the woodland area, we'll stop to create our collages. We'll provide card, glue, scissors and pens... and we'd love to see the grown-ups getting involved too! I've attached a few ideas for inspiration, but do let nature guide you and create something uniquely yours 🌿✨️

There will be plenty of time for free play and exploring in the woods too.

As always, our sessions are completely parent and child led. We're not here to teach as such... we simply provide the theme and materials, and you're free to take the activity in whatever direction suits your family best 😊

πŸ’› Β£1 per child suggested donation to help cover materials 🦟 Long sleeves and trousers recommended πŸ₯Ύ Sturdy footwear advised as some areas may be uneven or muddy

Can't wait to see you there! 🌿

⚽️ Home Ed Football ⚽️

Did you know we have a dedicated Home Ed Football session every Tuesday morning?

These sessions are run by the fantastic coaches from Leamington FC and are a brilliant opportunity for children to get active, build confidence, learn new skills and, most importantly, have fun! 😊

Whether your child already loves football, has never kicked a ball before, or simply enjoys being outdoors and keeping active, everyone is made to feel welcome. The atmosphere is friendly, supportive and completely pressure-free πŸ’›

Open to all children educated outside of school, including home educated, EOTAS and flexi-schooled children.

Now that we're back outdoors for the summer, there's plenty of space to run, play and enjoy the fresh air too πŸŒΏβ˜€οΈ

If it is the work of a group of young artists, then they can go in size to A3.

There is limited space for small 3D artworks (sculpture, installation) - please send us the photos and dimensions to discuss.

πŸ“† Deadline:
12noon on 1st July, 2026

πŸ“¬ Please message us directly for the address where you can send your artwork to.

Include the title, the first name of the artist, age if you'd like, and short description, if required.

πŸ’› Exploring Our New Base! πŸ’›

We're excited to invite you along to our next session as we begin exploring our new indoor home at Harbury Village Hall 😊

This session is all about seeing what the space can offer and starting to shape what future indoor meet-ups could look like for our community. We'd love your ideas and input along the way!

There'll be plenty available for children to dip in and out of, including indoor sports and games, board and card games, art activities, colouring and Lego challenges πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸŽ¨β™ŸοΈπŸ§±

One of the things we're most excited about is having room to move and play more freely, whilst also being able to offer quieter corners for those who prefer a calmer space πŸ’›

Feel free to bring along anything you're working on, have created, or would simply like to share with others. As always, there's no pressure to join in with any particular activity... children are free to enjoy the session in whatever way works best for them.

πŸ“… Monday 8th June
⏰ 1pm to 2.30pm
πŸ“ Harbury Village Hall, CV33 9JE
πŸš— Plenty of parking available directly behind the hall

πŸ’› Β£2 donation per child to help cover resources

We can't wait to see you there and start this exciting new chapter together 😊
