Fall Conference 2025 | A Day at Ambleside
Experience a full school day as a Charlotte Mason student, using living resources that nourish the soul.

Become a Living Participant
In this Back to School conference, Charlotte Mason mothers will gather for fellowship and simulate a school day intended to inspire. Using living resources that will be appreciated by adults and children alike, we will host a living demonstration of an entire school day at "Ambleside", complete with beautiful ideas, nature walks, and handicrafts.
At the end of each session, there will be opportunity for mothers to reflect, take notes, and ask practical questions about implementation. Sometimes, you have to see it to understand it!
Whether this is your first year homeschooling or you're a Charlotte Mason pro, come for the living ideas and enjoy the day off.
Half-educational, half-retreat.
The beauty of a living education is that it appeals to all ages. We don't give children "twaddle"— we introduce them to all that is good and beautiful. The timeless appeal of high art, excellent literature, and time outside is what we all need as persons. Come be inspired while you learn—experience a living education.
Immerse Yourself in Living Ideas
Listen to beautiful tales, encounter great paintings, hear inspirational stories—all in a morning of short lessons.
Spend Time in Nature
Grab notebook and a set of paints and head off to sketch, observe, and experiment in nature.
Lunch on the Grounds

Have Fun with the Classics

Mother's Day Off
