Legislature Day is coming Tuesday December 8th please join us!!

Dear Fellow Home Educators,

Just 1 week from today is our Legislature Day. Come and join us as we enjoy a tour of the legislature, observe the opening and listen to the floor discussions of the day. Your attendance is appreciated as we represent home educating families in the province of New Brunswick.

Many people still have misconceptions about home educating and wonder “Is it really working?”, “Is it really legal?” Does home education create good citizens? Are they happy with their lives? Is it only for the wealthy and educated?

By organizing this event, HENB presents home educating to our MLA’s. HENB has made special arrangements to give each MLA a packet of information about home educating in Canada that will include a personal letter and an informational brochure about HENB. Each MLA will also receive a mug and plate of Christmas cookies with an attached card with the Christmas story. Imagine all 56 MLA’s and the house speaker receiving the story of the birth of Christ with the salvation message. This is an outreach you can be apart of. By attending this event, you show our MLA’s that home educators are real people, and a real part of their constituency.

As a reminder, we do have over 65 children registered (and 31 parents) to come to the Legislature already and would love for you and your family to come as well. Come join in the fun we would love to have at least 90 children present. Help make that happen!

The upcoming Legislature Day, is on Tuesday December 8, 2009. Please email info@henb.org to advise us how many children and how many adults are coming.

Some things to note:
*Please note adults need a piece of ID
