Help Support The Community Services On Homeschool Australia
Contribute to the development and maintenance of the growing collection of homeschooling community support services you will find on Homeschool Australia -- Newsletter, Online Support Group, Australian Home Education Directory, personal replies by Beverley Paine to your emails, as well as the hundreds of pages on the Curriculum site, etc. We need your help to keep the suite of Homeschool Australia websites online. If you like and use what you find on our web site and have the ability, we encourage you to... Become A Homeschool Australia Supporter Why We Need Your Help Homeschool Australia is owned and managed by Beverley and Robin Paine. The work done to maintain and support Homeschool Australia's online presence is done on a voluntary basis. As our operating expenses are relatively low we can afford to invest considerable time and energy into providing the free homeschooling community support services, such as those listed above and on the menu at your right. In the past we have not charged membership or subscription fees, or accepted paid advertising. However, a change in circumstances has meant that we now derive all our income from our writing and publishing endeavours and because of this we have begun to accept advertising on our websites. We are funded solely by modest sales of Beverley's books, advertising by educational and homeschool suppliers and, more importantly, by generous, voluntary gift contributions from people like you! Your donation will help us continue to By deliberately choosing to try to derive an income from doing what we love - helping others get started or continue along their homeschooling journey - we aim to model sustainable small business practices. We hope that our efforts and success will encourage others, especially young homeschool graduates, to earn an income from what they believe in and what they love to do most. To be successful long-term, we believe that we must operate through self-funding, either through sales of the books and booklets Beverley writes, through sensitive and appropriate advertising on our websites and through the generous donations of our friends in the Home Educating Community. We are not asking for much. In fact, if every person who joined our Newsletter announce list, or participated in our online Support Group, or who used our extensive homeschool and curriculum articles Library were to contribute $10 or $20 dollars a year -- a couple of dollars a month -- we would have the funding to meet all of our financial commitments without difficulty. A gift of any size, small or large, is greatly appreciated.

During this time they home educated their three, now adult, children. Beverley has written and self-published many titles on home education which she sells from home. Your donation will enable them to continue to do this work for years to come! Thank you for your generous donation to Homeschool Australia. |

Pioneering members of the home education movement in Australia, Beverley and Robin Paine are passionate advocates of true educational choice for families. They began homeschooling their children in 1986 and three years later started the South Australian Home Based Learners network.
Beverley wrote Getting Started with Homeschooling in 1995-97 and since then continues to write books and booklets on home education. She balances spending time helping home educators with working in her garden and renovating her home, as well as continuing to build her collection of writing on a variety of homeschooling subjects. Beverley maintains an extensive collection of websites as well as several Yahoo groups supporting families teaching their children at home.
In 2007 Beverley joined the HEA and became a committee member in 2008: she also edits and produce the HEA Newsletter, HEA magazine, Stepping Stones for Home Educators, annual Resource Directory and other HEA publications.
