Last minute reminder for CHESS

CHESS is on again this weekend! I went last year and purchased some helpful curriculum resources as well as enjoying the help of seminars on various home ed topics and time to catch up with other home eders I know here in Perth. Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend this year, but if you are thinking of home educating in Western Australia, CHESS will be a very useful day.

From the brochure I received in the mail:

10:30 Morning Break
11:00 Session 2: Preparing for Home Education

2:00 Session 4: Curriculum Summary
3:00 Session 5: LEM Phonics

@ Bull Creek Westminster Presbyterian Church,
32 Bull Creek Drive, Bull Creek

$10 individual or $20 Family
Payment on the day, no pre-registration required

Children are welcome to attend, provided they are quiet and accountable to their parents

CHESS is run by Light Educational Ministries, and other Christian curriculum suppliers are usually there as well. (I have used the LEM Phonics materials with Joshua and Anna to great success and Abigail is now using them as well.)

Jeff has just announced that his conference for Saturday has been cancelled, so I can go to CHESS after all. Hurrah!
