Seacoast Unschooling Network
(SUN)

Living and Learning Without School!

We are a support group for unschooling and relaxed homeschooling families in the seacoast area of southern Maine and New Hampshire. We are inspired by the works of John Holt, and the idea that curiosity is innate and that learning is a natural, seamless part of life. We welcome those who are new to homeschooling or have young children and are exploring their options. SUN is a non-directed support group, which means that all activities are organized by individual families, who then invite others to join them.
