Skwirk Access - Group Buy Via Hbln In Wa

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 00:57:09 +0000

Hi everyone,

Thanks for sending all the payments to me. They've been sent on to HBLN today.

HBLN and HEN will be notifying everyone of their usernames and access details via email over the next few days.

If you haven't heard anything by Wednesday (8 June) please contact me via email or PM.

-------------------------------

Hi everyone,

This offer is now closed. I've sent details of all the subscribers to HBLN.

I'll PM people individually when their payments clear, and pass on any further information when it is supplied by HBLN.

Thanks,
Sarah

------------------------------------------------

Just updating at the top of the thread - and thanks to all those who have already responded.

If you want to take part, I need to receive the following information (for each child) by 4pm this afternoon (Saturday May 28 2011):

Child's name
Child's birthdate
Contact email
Preferred username

Payment details will be sent to you on receipt of this information. Payment is due at the end of May, and HBLN will be paying for everyone upfront.

Thanks,
Sarah

--------------------

I got an email yesterday from HBLN in WA, who are organising a group buy for Skwirk access:

______________

Quote

Currently it would cost a home based family $115 per child to access this site, however I have been able to organise a deal where it would cost $4.88 per student if we have a minimum of 300 students...

...the offer is only available till the end of May so I am asking that people respond before the 25th of May to enable us to have enough time to put the order through.

______________

We would need one point of contact for all TRP users, in order to simplify the admin process for HBLN. If anyone else would like to volunteer to do this, please let me know

Also, people would need to make a firm commitment so HBLN know they have the numbers to organise the group buy, before the 25 May deadline.

If you want to access this reduced rate, and are willing to pay up front to meet the deadline, please send me a PM as soon as possble. I may not catch all the replies to this thread.

Posting Hot Deals

Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:50:55 +0000

When you create a new post here on the Rockpool, you will notice now that there are three text boxes. The First box is called "Topic Title" and that is where you put the title of your post. The second text box under that is called "Topic Tags" and this is the box where you create any labels or tags for your post.

If your post is about a "Bargain", "Freebie" or "Limited Time Offer" please use one of these phrases as your first topic tag.

Simply type the phrase for example freebie followed by a comma , in the topic tag text box. This should turn the phrase into a little grey coloured text box with a tiny 'x' on the right hand side. If you have made a mistake with the tag you have created, just click on the tiny 'x' to delete it and type it again. Now, to use the topic tag as a label for your post you need to ALSO click the check box on the right hand side that says "Use first tag as prefix". When you do this, the phrase in the grey tag box will turn a lovely bright blue!

It should look like this...

Then just go ahead and create your post as normal.

If you need to add a label or tag after you have already posted, when you click on "edit my post" you will then need to select the option to "use full editor" in order to see all of the text boxes again. Note that only the first post in a topic can have a label or tags.

If it is a limited time offer or something that has an expiry date, it would be a really huge mega help to put the expiry date of the offer (if there is one) in the topic description to help us prune out of date offers easily.

Giant Book Clear Out (Help! I Can't Move!)

Sun, 22 Jan 2012 06:59:03 +0000

Most of these books will have a name label / sticker thing on them. Most in pretty good condition and PB unless stated otherwise. Some may be from a Christian perspective.

I will combine postage from across all of these posts, just thought it would be easier to track. Postage is in addition and I will try really hard to get you a good postage deal. Satchels start at $6 and I can do an A4 size box up to 15kg for $13.

I am happy to take direct deposit, palmate or paypal, whatever works for you.

Christopherus Grades 3 And 5

Fri, 20 Jan 2012 01:15:19 +0000

Hi,
I have finished with these lovely 3rd and 5th grade packages. Christopherus is a US-based Steiner/Waldorf curriculum supplier, written specifically for homeschoolers by a homeschooling mum and trained Steiner teacher. The style is inspiring, very practical and easy to work with, and easy to adapt to Australia. Unlike most Steiner curricula, Christopherus provides material for main, middle and block lessons.

Grade 3: $250 plus postage
Language arts - speech exercises, poetry, dictation and writing, parts of speech,
Stories of wonder - international folk tales
Maths - time and money, weather and measurement, four processes, active maths, worksheets
Native Americans- history, geography, craft, cooking, art and composition all rolled into one. A brilliant unit
Farming, building and gardening
Old Testament stories - beautiful introduction to the Old Testament from Genesis to Joseph. Suit Christian, Jewish or secular presentation. Includes Old Testament Stories manual
Very good condition, some damage to binder (this occurred in transit from the US), doesn't affect use

Grade 5: $310 plus postage
Includes Grade 5 curriculum in folder, maths syllabus (but not the Key to... workbooks), Botany bundle (Botany book plus Kovacs book), and Ancient Greece by Charles Kovacs. Curriculum includes language arts, maths, botany, American geography, form drawing, geometry, Ancient Greece and Ancient China, arts and crafts, clocks and extra lessons. The Ancient Mythology bundle is not included but can be purchased through Christopherus. Excellent condition. This is a very full year of work - we had a great year with it and both my son and I learned heaps.

I've got some more Steiner curricula floating around which I will post in the coming weeks

... Mus

Thu, 19 Jan 2012 02:45:26 +0000

Hi ,

I have for sale the following MUS items . All student texts are in good condition and haven't been written in.

All items are plus postage

Beta ( double digit addition and subtraction) - test book only $10

Gamma ( multiplication ) - test book only $10

Delta ( division) - Whole bundle $50, Student pages, DVD and TM - please note that this curriculum was in our caravan when we killed it and the TM is in pieces. I have used it with two kids since then and it has been fine but it isn't nicely bound like the other material - it is in a manila envelope that is why I am selling it a bit cheaper than I usually would.

Thanks for looking
