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 several books and booklets on home education through
her self-publishing business, Always Learning Books, and maintained an extensive collection of websites as well as
several Yahoo groups supporting families teaching their children at home. Beverley retired from actively supporting home
education in July 2008 to allow her to spend time on her garden and writing projects. She continues to support the
Home Education Association of Australia as a committee member. Beverley's books will remain available through her websites. Gradually all of her books will be converted to E-books as she makes the transition to a 'paperless office'.

homeschool adventure. The information you supply is real and
generous - fantastic reading. I am so inspired... Your honesty is so rare.
