Welcome to our blog!

Welcome to the SHEAF Blog.

Despite our best intentions, we're not great at keeping this blog updated with our latest happenings. We are, however, definitely an active group, meeting at least once each week during term time.

If you'd like to make contact with Dunedin home educators, our contact details are in the column, below right.

We send out a weekly email newsletter with details of upcoming events, courses, gatherings etc.

You can also find us on Facebook (page is visible whether you're a facebook user or not)
http://www.facebook.com/SHEAFDunedin

Have a look through this blog to see the types of events we have organised in the past. You'll also find links to other blogs and articles that we find useful or informative, on the off-chance that you'll appreciate them too :~) (Look for these more general blog-posts under the label "Weekend Reading")

If you're not currently on our email list and would like to contact us, please email us at the address you can see in the column on the right. We'd love to hear from you!

Mapoutahi Pa Walk

This week our Wednesday activity will be a trip to Mapoutahi Pa (thanks to Tammy for the idea!).
Meet 12.30 at the carpark at the end of the Osborne Rd

Detailed info about the walk and site (including directions) can be found here
Apparently dogs are welcome on a leash! (according to this DoC newsletter - see p.4)
Map can be found here

The Department of Conservation has prepared the following Environmental Education Resource Kit for student groups visiting Maori pa sites on the Otago coast.
Although Mapoutahi is not one of the three trips mentioned in the resource kit, some of the activity suggestions might appeal...
