Virtual Family Event About Home Education in Canada

 

Would your family enjoy a meaningful break in their routine? Perhaps a family virtual retreat is just what you all need! The Canadian Schoolhouse focuses on home education in Canada but puts on this event to appeal to families homeschooling anywhere in the world.

This four-day live online event is where you’ll be renewed in God’s plan for your family and in your commitment to home education. New homeschooling parents are realizing the benefits of educating their children and the positive impact it has on their family life. Veteran homeschoolers regularly discover new advantages of being in control of their children's learning life and become eager to share their convictions.

The Virtual Family Retreat is an event that provides value to parents at different levels of experience in home education, even those just thinking about it. And while it is put on by The Canadian Schoolhouse (the Canadian side of The Old Schoolhouse®), there are speakers and attendees from locations all over the world because parents educating their children are similar in the most important ways, no matter where you are!

The live event for 2022 happens from November 15th to the 18th from 1 p.m. to around 3 p.m. ET and will be live streaming on Facebook and YouTube. For those that can’t make it for the live event, the retreat webpage will have the video recordings for parents to watch the day after each day’s live event. 

 

Are you reading this after the live event?

You can still go to the retreat page, watch the videos from each day, and even get a few of the
digital giveaways offered during the event. 

From a Trusted Name in the Homeschool Community

The Old Schoolhouse® is a company that has been serving the homeschooling community for over 20 years. Those that register for the event will receive various digital resources (many that are offered for free only to retreat registrants and attendees) that will provide guidance and support in their homeschooling lifestyle. 

There will be lessons and courses given away that are usually only available to members of SchoolhouseTeachers.com. Digital eBooks from the Homeschool Store will be offered at no cost and several “always free” family and homeschooling related resources will be highlighted through email and the event live stream. 

What’s a live event without giveaways? Well, that wouldn’t be an event from The Old Schoolhouse®. Along with gift cards, you could also find yourself with a free 1-year magazine subscription to The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine (Reg. $29 - $59 USD) or a free 1-year membership to the full curriculum site SchoolhouseTeachers.com (Reg. $269.97 USD).

 

Always Accessible After the Event

While you’ll get the most benefits from attending the Virtual Family Retreat live, you won’t miss out completely if you can’t make it. The recordings of the live event will be available on the retreat page at any time after the event, and you can even see last years’ event (with some of the digital giveaways offered during that event) on the same page. 

When you sign up for the retreat, you’ll be given a link to view and download the schedule, but here’s a look at what you can expect from the Virtual Family Retreat 2022 - A Purposeful Life.
