Note : Friends of NCHENZ are groups that are NOT formally joined to NCHENZ but share some aims in common and have agreed to be listed on this site and stay in communication with NCHENZ. This may be an option if your group is very informal and does not have its own money.

All individual members are on the Council  and are consulted about issues which require members’ approval. They receive information about meetings with the MoE and ERO and other matters of interest.

They can opt to receive agendas and minutes of meetings, join in discussions, advise the committee, and share information and expertise. Issues which require members’ approval are first discussed then an email survey sent.

The committee is selected from among the council members: current committee members are listed.

Committee members meet using Skype conference calling  and use a Yahoo email loop to work on Council issues.

Our constitution states that the committee must include 2 members from the South Island and 2 from the North.

Why should I join?

NCHENZ is the only national home-educators’ group which represents members democratically and by consensus. We need your membership in order to hear your ideas, and be as representative as possible.
