Out-of-Doors Nature Club

We are a small structured nature group in St. Augustine, FL. Our meetings are bi-weekly (every other week) at the moment but some have expressed interest in meeting more often. We pick a special topic each term and meet-ups start with a short, casual lesson on the topic before exploring and adding to our nature notebooks. Option to stay after for lunch and free play. There are a few optional nature notebook supplies recommended and a small supplies fee. We meet both at my house and various parks in the St. Augustine area.

We are also looking to start a more formal one-day-a-week enrichment co-op using the Simply Charlotte Mason Together curriculum at the start of 2026. If you are interested in teaching one of the enrichment subjects, please let us know which subject (peruse the SCM Together curriculum on their website for subjects). We are happy to run a monthly Charlotte Mason book group concurrently so we can all learn the Mason philosophy and how to best implement it.

All ages welcome for the Nature Club and co-op.

His Image, His Earth: A Charlotte Mason Co-Op

We strive to cultivate a rich, close-knit community where Christian homeschool families can share fellowship, encourage each other as we train our children according to God’s Word, and carry one another’s burdens.
We follow the Charlotte Mason philosophy and method, where we view education as “an atmosphere, a discipline, a life” as we study the riches during our weekly meetings.

Cost: $40 for the first student, $25 for each additional student (oldest student must be 6 years or older).

We do have a cap of 12 families, so we may be full, but please reach out, we'd love to hear from you!

Ambleside-by-the-Sea

Ambleside-by-the-Sea is a parent-led, two-day-a-week homeschool collaborative providing students from preschool through high school years with a Charlotte Mason education. We use living books, narration, and short lessons that spread a wide “feast” across varied subjects. We seek to provide an environment that allows our children to come into direct contact with vital and living ideas from great minds, and to nurture students in forming relations with all that is about them in substance and idea: in words, music, art, science, nature, mathematics, and all that is good, true, and beautiful.

We cover subjects including:
Math Drill / Math Lab / Math Games
Natural History / Science / Nature Notebooking
U.S. History
Ancient History
Plutarch’s ‘Lives’ (Forms III & IV)
Children’s Plutarch (Form II)
Shakespeare
Literature
Geography / Map Drill / Map Making
Poetry / Recitation
Latin (Forms III & IV)
Music / Folk Dancing / Composer Study
Art / Artist Study
Handicrafts
P.E.: Swedish Drill

We also have additional events together as a community including three book club meetings each year for all ages, and one or two handicraft fairs.

Because our intent is to cover academic subjects as well as those subjects often considered “enrichment subjects,” we meet twice weekly and in some ways function similarly to a “university model school;" families can structure their days at home to fill in around the spines and core subjects we cover on our days together. Upper form students have several assignments to complete during their days at home, including literature and writing assignments, and science readings in preparation for science experiments done together.

Ambleside-by-the-Sea moms also meet monthly to read and discuss Charlotte Mason's volumes, and we are always happy to have more people join us!

A community of families pursuing the true and good life through a CM lifestyle and education. Our community is centered on our Mama Book Club which meets monthly to discuss and grow through CM writings and conferences. Our co-op is not “enrichment” but features the parts of the CM feast best done in community and often overlooked in the hustle of normal life. Our Natural History Club meets to explore local natural areas through hikes, object lessons, physical geography, and field trips. Applications are open on a rolling basis and admission is available between each term if spaces are available.
