26.6.20 Flushed with Pride

Good afternoon everybody as a rather humid week of the School of Daddy comes to an end. Today the children are learning all about sanitation in an activity that is sure to make their whole week. Here Harry is taking notes on stool size, consistency and concentration of gases in order to assess how effective the simple pit latrine is in dealing with waste products and solid residues. Depending on local weather conditions and the prevalence of thunderstorms, we may also be assessing the efficacy of a simple Pour-Flush Latrine later on...


24.6.20 Morning Dis-Assembly

Good afternoon and I trust everyone is enjoying the sunshine. We thought we'd take the opportunity for some more outdoor learning by taking a closer look at flat-pack furniture...

5.6.20 Oooh Naaasty!

Good Morning everybody and I hope you've all had a good week. I also hope the first week back has gone as smoothly and stress-free as possible for all those who went back to school too! Here at the School of Daddy we are getting ready for the weekend by harking back to an old tea time TV treat. The house and garden have been turned in to dungeons deep and caverns dark with just a few additions of treacherous traps, odious ogres and goulish goblins. Harry has donned his helmet and shouldered his knapsack to take on the role of Dungeoneer. He will be tackling a whole host of puzzles and riddles using problem solving skills and lateral thinking. Logic and guile should see him through but things are looking decidedly dangerous for this intrepid adventurer... Warning Harry - life force energy is fading.... Ooh nasty!
