Welcome to the Victoria Home Learning Network! |
|
The Victoria Home Learning Network (VHLN) is a community-based support group for all home learning families in the Greater Victoria area. Our membership is comprised of families who follow diverse home learning paths – from traditional approaches to home schooling to “radical" unschooling to everything in between.
Support is offered to members in the way of a Hotline (a members-only Yahoo group where individuals post events and activities relevant to the home learning community), a monthly SOS (Support or Socializing) gathering for the parents of home learners, large group events a few times a year, a website, an online newsletter blog (exclusive to members), access to a lending library, a discount card for several vendors in the Victoria area, and a membership directory for those who choose to be a part of it.
The VHLN sponsors several home learning events over the year. In addition to the monthly SOS meetings for parents, members can attend:
- The Annual VHLN Not-Back-To-School Picnic (September) - "Register or Enroll" Information Meeting (September) - The Science Celebration (a non-competitive Science & project fair) - The May Day Potluck and Celebration - Events featuring guest speakers
All families with a direct interest in home learning or home schooling are welcome to join the VHLN… and are invited to join in the activities they feel best fit their family’s collective and individual interests!
