Newsletter FrontPage Welcome to our Saskatoon and Area Homeschoolers' Bulletin Board!
This page is maintained by volunteer homeschooling parents for the benefit of our community. Facebook is great, but has its limitations. We hope to see this page utilized as a way of notifying our fellow homeschoolers of what's going on throughout the year. We hope that it once again becomes an active means of communication.
You can help!
Get the word out to check this page often. Organize (and let us know about!) a field trip or class. Participate in as much as you like. If there's information you'd like to circulate, please email or phone the administrator, Jennifer Peak.

2017 Homeschool Fencing Classes
*I am organizing this early so that people can possibly use fencing lessons as a Christmas gift. (Or ask grandparents or family members to buy the lessons for Christmas and cut down on the toys!)
Dates: Thursdays, January 5th to March 23rd or 30th (12 wks)
Times: 1:00 - 1:30 - 4-7 yrs olds
1:30 - 2:30 - 8 & up returning
2:30 - 3:30 - 8 & up beginner
*We can add more classes if these fill up, or change the beginner/returning level based on who registers. So if morning classes suit you better, we just need to wait until these fill.
Location: 414-1st Ave. N (Saskatoon Fencing Club)
Cost: $40 (4-7 yr olds), $75 (8 & up)
To register: Please FB message Jessica Benson or e-mail gjbenson77@gmail.com to reserve a spot. Please give name and age.
Payment: Due at first lesson on Jan. 5th.
*I am heavily endorsing this activity because my kids loved it so much last year. The instructor was amazing -- I had good feedback from the parents. The kids got a good workout (which is great in the dead of winter), learned a new skill, had fun, and this was a low-cost activity. If you're worried about adding another thing to your schedule, this is a very low-commitment activity: it is in a central location, all the equipment is provided (all you need to do is show up and have your kids dressed in sweat pants and runners), and there is a good waiting area. The 4-7 yr old class is adorable; they use nerf swords. (Please note I made the classes 12 wks instead of 8 wks like last year.)
Homeschool Directory Update:
The 2016/17 Homeschool Directory has been e-mailed out. If you didn't receive it and were supposed to or would like to be added, please message Jessica: gjbenson77@gmail.com
My name is Roxanne Frost. I homeschooled my four children in Regina and ended up with a lawyer and three doctors. I wrote a book detailing some of the things I did to help my children achieve this success. My book is called, "Three Doctors: Molding & Developing Exceptional Children". Please let me know if you would be interested in buying a copy. I am selling the book for $20. I would also like to hold a workshop in Saskatoon for parents who are homeschooling. I would talk for a bit, and then I would give you a chance to ask me any questions you may have. Please message me if you would be interested in this workshop. I truly believe we need professionals and leaders coming out of our Saskatoon homeschool group, and if I can be of any help to you and your children to achieve this, I would love to do so. My email isr.pawlukfrost@gmail.com.
