So.... you’re thinking about Homeschooling?
It can be REALLY hard to know where to start on your Home Schooling journey. It feels like a very BIG commitment and when our family began our “Unschooling” journey a friend once shared with me some very good advice….
“There is no end date with homeschooling - you can always change your mind”
….and honestly they were so right!
Do what works best for your family and rest assured that MANY children have been in and out of the school/homeschool system and grown into happy, healthy, successful adults.
The main thing children need is parents who care and YOU obviously do - why else would you be reading this?!
So to help you on your way here is some helpful information…
CHECK OUT the Australian Homeschool Association and look for your state chapter
JOIN your local home schoolers group on Facebook
REGISTER for the online Australian Homeschooling Summit - do this when you are really READY to soak in the information. It’s only $25 and there are so many great presenters sharing valuable info on curriculum and reporting.
As for extra resources we recommend these FANTASTIC and inspiring books
And if you haven’t already LISTEN to our Home Schooling Journeys on the Raising Wildlings Podcast.

Hopefully this information helps relieve some stress and arms you with a few resources to start you on your own learning journey, whatever that looks like for your family.
People have been homeschooling their kids for a long time - you’re gonna be fine.
You got this!
