The Angelico Family

We have been home educating our children since 1988, and began the business in mid-1990. Only Michael has ever been "school schooled" - for his first two years.

We are Christians and established our home education from the very beginning upon the sure foundation of God's Word, where are found consistent Scriptural principles to guide us in fulfilling our God-given responsibilities as parents.

As we have developed the business, likewise upon Scriptural principles, we have been blessed to make many friends throughout Australia.

Now we have reached a stage where we are able to speak in various places about home education, and we have discussed with others around this country the significance of parents taking up their responsibilities for the Godly training of their children.

We believe that this offers our nation a way forward, and to the extent that it honours the Name of Jesus it is possibly the only way, whereas at present National and State leaders are visibly perplexed and overwhelmed by the difficulties facing Australia.

Kingsley Educational Pty Ltd

We established it to run full-time but of course that did not happen immediately. However, we were determined to operate as God led us, and did not go into large debt or try to expand too quickly. It took us many years to become a full-time operation but even now we are able to operate from home, giving us a unique "flavour" - from our home to your home - something which we can see that people appreciate, and which we would like to maintain into the future. After ten years we had grown substantially to the point where we have thousands of customers throughout Australia, New Zealand, South East Asia and the Pacific basin. We had also expanded our range from about 1200 items to over 2500, and our suppliers from one to near thirty.

About the Angelico Family

MarJo, as well as teaching all the school-age children and doing all the normal jobs mothers do to keep a house running, talks to people on the phone when they need help with any aspect of their home education or raising their children.

• Michael is General Manager - keeps a hand on all the administration and accounting, reorders stock, maintains this web site, and tries to keep the warehouse reasonably tidy in between. He also maintains two of his own web sites: one about railways and one about humour.
• Chris is the computer operator - wrestling with computers that seem to spend approximately 27.0189544316 hours per day thinking up new ways to go wrong. In spite of his troubles, he still loves to play games and write programs. At last count he knew eight different programming languages, and could be said to be more fluent talking to computers than human beings! See his web site only if you are a computer nut yourself!
• Gabrielle does all the order processing - quality control, packaging and invoices. Life in a house full of boys has rubbed off: she can lecture for minutes on the safety benefits of wide tracks for a railway, and tells apart different types of aircraft as easily as her brothers can!
• David is learning to do the invoicing, accounting and administration.
• Tim prepares the parcels for posting, including writing up the Australia Post lodgement documents.
• Stephen pulls orders, manages the fax and printers.
• Thea is always delighted to run messages for people, including carrying stock (within certain weight limits!) for putting away when shipments arrive.
