These involved swimming, hiking, abseiling, sand skiing, orienteering, and studies such as tidal zone ecology, alien vegetation, the night sky etc etc. These camps allowed the children to interact with the teachers in a more informal situation than usually exists in the classroom, and resulted in a happy, relaxed atmosphere in school too.My wife and I have four granddaughters and two grandsons, who take up a fair amount of our time, and certainly help to keep us young. They are all home schooled, and getting a wonderfully wide and complete education as a result.view less
