From Roots to Wings: Philippine Homeschool Conference 2016
By Mommy Donna and Kib - September 26, 2016
I love writing about homeschooling, and if there are activities related to homeschooling, I really try my best to go because I know I will learn a lot from it and my son will also enjoy and learn too. Homeschooling indeed is the best option for us.
I've attended homeschool conferences in the past twice and had been one of the organizers in 2013 homeschool conference. The Philippine Homeschool Conference (PHC) has become the annual 'must-attend' event of homeschoolers in the Philippines. I agree that this is the best opportunity for rookie and veteran homeschoolers to mingle, to inspire, and to be updated with what's in in the homeschooling sector.
This year, I'm honored be invited in the media launch of this year's homeschool conference. This year conference is entitled "From Roots to Wings: Homeschooling Through the Stages".
This year's homeschooling conference is in cooperation with Philam Life and organized by Homeschool Association of the Philippine Islands (HAPI) and Educating for Life (EFL). It is said that this year's homeschool conference will be bigger and better than the previous homeschooling conferences.
The line-up of speakers consists of international and local individuals who are passionate homeschooling advocates and are considered 'experts' and experienced in homeschooling their respective children. There will also be breakout sessions where new and experienced homeschoolers alike will find something "fit" for their unique homeschooling situations.
Apart from the talks, there will be an expo area where participants can shop for homeschooling products and services which can help in enriching the homeschooling experience for their children.
Here are the activities for the children during the Philippine Homeschool Conference 2016:
Contest is extended until October 1st, so submit your photo/story now!
Establish the roots of your children so that in time they'll soar up like eagles when you release them to the world. Hope to see you there!
