'We're unschooling our children, they learn where, when and whatever they want'

A pair of sisters are unschooling their children together - and let the kids decide when and what they learn. Kelsey Hall, 29, decided to deregister her son, Logan, seven, from school in March 2023 as he “hated” going.

Instead they do everything on the children's terms – spending time baking, at the beach and taking trips to places such as the police station - to teach the kids about everyday skills. Kelsey said Logan has been happier and more confident since she pulled him out of school – and he is now more willing to learn.
