Almost two years ago, I started a website called the Homeschool HUB. The aim was to create a portal for South African homeschoolers that would redirect them to great websites, information and resources on home schooling. The HUB had chat rooms, forums and more. In the beginning it grew well. People joined quickly and activity was on the rise. Then, I ran into IT support and hosting problems. A long story short – I eventually closed down the HUB until further notice. My hope is that one day I will be able to resurrect it. In the meantime, the HUB web address redirects here.
