Life at Ambleside
I am, I can, I ought, I will
From the Desk of Mrs. Flora
“Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings.”
— William Arthur Ward
I hope each of you enjoy your Thanksgiving break. Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to reflect on all we have to be grateful for and to spend time with those we are thankful for. Below you will find a glimpse of this week at Ambleside.
Happy Thanksgiving,
Mrs. Flora

"He practices various handicrafts that he may know the feel of wood, clay, leather, and the joy of handling tools, that is, that he may establish a due relation with materials. But, always, it is the book, the knowledge, the clay, the bird or blossom, he thinks of, not his own place or his own progress."
-Charlotte Mason
May our fingers be nimble,
And our hearts be glad,
In every task we do.
