Book Club
The second Wednesday of each month

We invite you to join our book club - a space for curious minds and thoughtful conversation. Together, we’ll explore a mix of titles ranging from foundational works like Free to Learn by Peter Gray and How Children Learn by John Holt, which deepen our understanding of self-directed education, to more interest-based reads such as historical fiction, memoirs, and beyond. Whether you're passionate about education, storytelling, or just love a good book, you're invited to join the journey!
