Take part in our Monthly Masterclass Challenge

Each month, NurtureStore’s creator, Cathy James, hosts a masterclass challenge for the Play Academy community. These challenges are relaxed, friendly and informative – no tests or grades!

We cover a different topic each month, selecting subjects to develop our skills, stretch our thinking, and inspire our homeschooling.

Each masterclass gives you something new to think about and supports you to improve your homeschooling, one step at a time. The challenges are practical, positive, and each one helps you put in place simple changes to make a huge impact on your children’s and your family’s wellbeing and learning.

You are invited! Join our Masterclass Challenges in the Play Academy community here.
