The Olives

... your children will be like olive shoots around your table. " (Psalm 128:3)

We are a community of Charlotte Mason homeschooling mamas and children named "The Olives".
I started this group some years ago (with just one other family) when we moved to Johannesburg, South Africa. My prayer was to find community, to build friendships, to support each other and to learn together..

God has been faithful and we are now a community of nine families! Our group is blessed by so many different strengths and talents and each mama and child bring something precious to it.

We meet every second Friday for a couple of hours to sing folksongs, read poetry and to do nature study together.

Mums also meet for a monthly book study and we have family gatherings at the end of the year.
