*** Please do not email me or ask me for other details as I am not the organiser of the event nor will I be there since I would most likely be in confinement 🙂 Instead, do sign up with the Singapore Homeschool Yahoo Group for updates and if you have any questions about the event or anything pertaining to homeschooling in Singapore.
