The name ‘Little Lea’ is taken from the childhood home of one our favorite authors, C.S. Lewis. While listening to his biography we were captured by the way he referred to his childhood home with great fondness. It was the epitome of all that was calm, mature and secure. There were times of solitude, places for adventure and unrestricted access to books! The author describes his childhood as a time of “humdrum happiness.” His early life in the house appeared to be insulated from anything that was detrimental and nurtured by all that was steady, constant, and beneficial: an ordered tranquility. It is our hope that we will capture the spirit of such a home for those who become part of our learning community, our Little Lea!
