One-Day Symposiums
To meet the needs of our large Charlotte Mason community, we have taken our retreats on the road and now offer one-day symposiums in regions more off the beaten path.
We see multiple benefits arising from the local one-day symposium model.
-
It provides an opportunity for busy or less-supported parents to slip away for the day and receive education for themselves; which they likely couldn't do for a farther away weekend event.
-
It is financially lean, allowing us to charge very little for attendance and making it within budget for more families.
-
It becomes a power-packed day with tons of energy and longer attention spans, allowing us to fit more content and more connection time in for all in attendance.
-
It draws out more hidden CM families and groups in the local community and makes everyone aware of who and what is available in their own region. This also prompts opportunity for starting new organized groups.
The key to a good regional symposium is to have a passionate CM person or group living locally in that region. That person/group assists us with basic logistics so that our team can bring our best material and knowledge, energy and connection to the symposium. If you feel like that person/group and you see opportunity in your region, email us on the Contact Page and we can have a conversation.
Any One-Day Symposium currently in the works is listed below. More information and future scheduled symposiums will be posted here as well as emailed out to the CMNW Network.

Meet Our Speakers
Enjoy a day specially prepared for you, where you will be thoughtfully guided through all of Charlotte Mason's principles and how they shape and determine what we teach our children through the days and years. We provide a robust schedule that will bring plenty of new insights, understanding and encouragement, while giving room for processing and connecting.
