Welcome to Flourish Homeschool

A space to encourage, equip & empower you on your homeschooling journey

About Flourish Homeschool

Flourish Homeschool was born out of a desire to encourage, equip and empower families on their homeschooling journey.   

In this age of digital overload, many families begin their homeschooling journey confused and overwhelmed. It is through conversations with tired and frustrated parents, that the ideas of support and coaching came.  A listening ear, some gentle guidance in the right direction can make all the difference!  It’s been an honour to be invited into the hearts and homes of families to help them find their own expression of homeschooling and to watch them flourish.   

The Learning Guides have been created out of need for contextual hands-on learning curriculum for little learners.  In the early years of teaching my own young children, I began to document our learning journey to share with friends.  These were often scrawled in note form that, through some amazing creative help and hard work has finally blossomed into learning guides.

  • "Penny is so gracious and experienced and heard me out completely before gently breaking it apart for me into manageable bite-size pieces. I was filled with vision and hope, and felt empowered with resources and the self-confidence to do what was best for our family. I felt excited, knowing that I wasn't alone, and had the support of Penny in the journey ahead." ~Jeanne

  • "Penny's encouragement and support, as well as her knowledge and skills in child development and education have been foundational and life giving to our family in our homeschool journey. Whilst I now feel like I have the skills to thrive as a homeschool mum, I'm not quite sure where we'd be without her!" ~Jaye

  • "Generous with sharing practical ideas, resources and her own experiences, Penny has inspired and encouraged me to step into our life of learning with love, passion and patience. Penny has much wisdom to share and is skilled in listening and coaching. I only wish that we weren't separated by a vast desert and could share a cup of tea and chat every week!" ~Jenessa

Hi, I’m Penny

I live on the coast of Western Australia with my husband and our four beautiful children.  I am a primary school teacher turned homeschool mama and feel incredibly blessed to have the opportunity to learning alongside my children.

I enjoy the freedom, flexibility and lifestyle of homeschooling. I love spending my days with my children and enjoying the bond we all share. 

When I get a ‘quiet moment’, I like to be in the sea, out in nature, playing music or sitting down with a cuppa. 

So, as we ride the ups and downs of this journey of educating our children at home, it is my hope that as you come along with me, you may be encouraged and supported for the whole family to flourish in your journey.
