Offline tools for Australian home educating families
Real work for today. Evidence you can show your registering authority.
Wattlewood gives your child curriculum-aligned work for the day, so you aren't starting from a blank page. As your child works, it turns what they actually did into dated records written for a registering authority.
Try a free sample week first (Years 1-2, 3-4 or 5-6). When you're ready, Wattlewood is a one-time purchase from A$249 (the app and one year level), with no subscription.
The free preview opens on Payhip and works offline. Chrome or Edge work best. Your registering authority makes the decision about your registration; we help you record and present the learning. See prices for everything in the shop.
Where do you live?
Registration works differently in each state and territory. Pick yours for the first things to do, with links to the official pages.
Two jobs, one tool
Most families need help with the same two things: knowing what to do today, and having something to show afterwards.
Something real to do today
Your child gets a daily trail of Australian Curriculum tasks in Maths, English, Science and Geography. Every task has Support, Core and Extension levels. Your child's level never changes by itself: the app can suggest a change, and you decide.
On the days you have nothing left to invent, the work is already there.
Learning that becomes evidence
As your child works, Wattlewood keeps dated evidence. Parent Corner has evidence reports, term reports, certificates and learning hours, so you aren't rebuilding the year from memory when a report is due.
Offline and private
Runs on your own device with no account, login, cloud or tracking.
Buy once
One-time downloads through Payhip. No subscriptions.
Australian Curriculum
Content follows Australian Curriculum v9.0. NSW families must base their program on NESA syllabuses, so check the Start here page for your state.

Plan Builder, then Registration Pack
Both are free. Plan Builder makes state-specific learning plans for all eight states and territories. In Tasmania it is a thinking aid only: the program you submit must be in your own words. Registration Pack brings learning plans, certificates and residency evidence together in one registration PDF.

Wattlewood, when it suits
The full app with one year level is a one-time purchase of A$249. Extra year packs are A$139 each and need Wattlewood to run. Wattlewood Complete adds Hollow, Field Notes, BrainForge and the 28 Days guide for A$349.
Had a Show Cause Notice, or want the full picture? My guide 28 Days: The Real Evidence Guide for Australian Home Educators is A$19.95 (PDF, not legal advice).
This started with one letter I hoped I'd never get.
A Show Cause Notice, and 28 days to prove my daughter should keep being home schooled. That's the reason every tool here exists: not to build a business, but so no other family has to feel what I felt.
