A Balanced Start

This pathway provides excellent coverage of the major learning areas expected in the Foundation years while maintaining the flexibility that makes homeschooling so rewarding.

Remember, this pathway is a guide, not a checklist. Feel free to swap Cores, follow your child's interests, read great books, explore rabbit trails and make learning your own.
