Hi Zhang, We reproduced the article by permission from the American Home Education Magazine (HEM) and don’t have Jim Dunn’s contact details yourself. I suggest you try contacting HEM as they may have his details in their author database although the article was written in 1998 and they could have lost touch with him. Try through their website here http://homeedmag.com/homeschooling/when-dad-homeschools/

Dear Sir:
May I have the pleasure to get your help? I am a Chinese. I have read the article “When Dad Homeschools: from Breadwinning to Baking” , which was written by Jim Dunn in 1998. Jim Dunn was my best friend when he came to China about 20 years ago. At that time he taught English in Tianjin Normal University. And in 1989, he left China and we have not been in touch for more than 10 years. Luckily enough, I found his artice and could you please contact him for me and tell him I am Xiao Kun and give him my E-mail address. Thanks a lot.

Comment on Dolphin Research Institute – 14th Dec by Fiona Manser

Can older children attend this event, or is it only for younger schoolers?
For example teens and late teens at the ‘end’ of their schooling may like exploring the concept of dolphin life!
It sounds like a fun and stimulating educational experience.

Hi Jane,
We don’t actually run the competition ourselves – your school may have kept a copy or you could contact the AMT directly at http://www.amt.edu.au/

Hi, is it possible to get a copy of the Maths Competition my son did this year. He is in Grade 5 – School Code 31453. Would like to see what the questions were, and which ones he got wrong.

Cheers,
Jane Busby

Make sure you show your children the SIEV X Memorial too:-

so they can ensure Australia never lets this happen again.
