Lions: Supporting Homeschooling Families in Empowering Their Children
At Lions, we understand the unique challenges and rewards of homeschooling. In today’s rapidly changing world, we offer a supportive path that ensures the best future for your children—while acknowledging that not every parent can be a full-time teacher and the importance of socialisation for our children.
Homeschooling is more than a responsibility; it’s a commitment to your child’s education and growth. Our dedicated educators partner with you to foster the innate love of learning that every child possesses. We’re here to help you nurture this passion, guiding your child toward a lifelong journey of discovery and knowledge.
We believe that every homeschooled child should have the freedom to explore their interests and the tools to shape their own future. With Lions, you can be confident that your child is receiving a well-rounded education that prepares them for success in whatever path they choose.
What We Do
1. Live interactive online sessions
Small groups of children at similar levels of ability (not age specific), run by professional qualified educators, Monday to Friday from 9.00am to 12.15 (NSW Timezone).
2. Help families apply for homeschooling
Help with the application process and also help children maintain records of their work.
3. Arrange regular social gatherings, events, camping trips
All excursions and camps are organised by Lions, however these events are for the whole family and as a homeschooling family you are responsible for your child/ren at all times. Bookings are made as a group or by each individual family.

Register Your Interest
With Lions
Fill in this form and someone from our team will call you back to schedule a suitable time for a discovery call.
Discovery
Call
During the discovery call you will have the opportunity to speak to one of our team about your child, the family, your learning goals and ask any questions you might have for us.
Observation
Day
During the observation day students will have an opportunity to experience first hand how the learning at Lions works.
Enrollment Call / Evaluation & Agreement Meeting
After the observation day we will mutually evaluate if Lions is a good fit for the student, and families decide whether to commit to joining Lions Hub.
During this call students and parents meet with the Director of Lions for a formal mutual agreement on the following 3 points:
We always
1. Treat each other with respect
2. Go the extra mile
3. Have each other’s backs
Once an agreement is made, formal onboarding will commence, including setting up of payment methods and payment of onboarding fees.
Onboarding Session then Start learning with Lions
During the Onboarding session children will be guided 1-on-1 by one of our experts to ensure they are familiar with all the systems they will use and that everything is set up properly on their computer.
Once the onboarding session is done, children are ready to hit the ground running and start their journey with Lions Homeschool Hub.
We hope they will not only learn valuable lessons and skills, but also make friendships that will last for life.
How it Works
The homeschooling application process
All homeschooling children need to register for homeschooling through their local homeschooling department.
The process is pretty simple and you can do it yourself or you can choose to engage our team to help you make the whole process as seamless as it can be.
Our team are always there to help you along the way on this process.
The homeschooling registration process involves the following steps:
- Submit your application with your local state homeschooling department
- Wait for approximately 2 to 10 weeks
- Submit your learning plan (Lions can help you prepare the learning plans)
- Have a meeting with the Authorised person (Don’t be scared, the homeschooling teams are a lovely bunch of people who are there to help families who want to homeschool. They are not out to make your life difficult)
- Keep your records of learning and have either annual or bi-annual review meetings with your local homeschooling body

Approaching Homeschooling as a Community vs on your own
- Traditionally homeschooling was done in isolation or a small coop settings
- At Lions we approach homeschooling together as a community, in order to provide a larger social environment for both children as well as parents and to be able to collectively source tutors to help our children learn the academic requirements to progress in life
- A broad set of talents and skills shared among the students and parents
Lions Magic Mornings
Imagine instead of starting the day with a roll call and loud “take out your books” it’s more like…
“Sit in a comfortable position, check that your back is up straight. Rest your hands gently in your lap and close your eyes.” And then, for the next 10 minutes children begin to focus on their breath, meditate or engage in other breathing exercises to set their day.
At Lions, the Educators know that starting our day with grounding exercises like Wim Hoff Breath work, Meditation, breathing exercises, Qigong or yoga will give them the tools to handles stressful situations, calm and set their minds to prepare for learning and better attend to and have more focused attention on what needs to get done.
For many of us, meditation is something we may have picked up later in life, but at Lions, our children are learning these life changing skills young. They are experiencing the benefits from a young age so they can learn to navigate the emotional rollercoaster of growing up.
Our magic morning sets the perfect tone for the rest of the learning day. We are calm, centered and intentional in our thoughts. Lions learners are cultivating self awareness, leading to making good choices and a spirit of compassion and empathy towards others.

StudentLions Education is the funnest school I have ever done. I love homeschooling because every day is a new adventure. Wednesday is Young Entrepreneurs Club where we learn skills we will need in the real world. Every day we have our Magic Mornings. I love learning things that I never would of learnt at a public school. Every day is an incredible learning experience and I wouldn't trade it for anything else.

StudentI have been at Lions for over a year now, and in that time, Lions have taught me things that my old school would never have covered such as how modern day windmills work, the Nuremberg Code and how to be more self-sufficient. The teachers have excellent methods that involve students working together and not just separately. Overall Lions is a great community and is the kind of environment that makes me excited to learn.
