Kids! I cannot teach you anything

I love that philosophy, it proves to me that curiosity is celebrated and learning is an adventure! I believe in inspiring young minds with a diverse range of subjects, all designed to make you think, question, and hopefully discover the amazing world around us, especially the secrets held within old buildings; 2,500 years after Socrates said this, it did for me 🤔.

Things don't just happen, there's always a reason why.

So in the section named "curriculum" I've thrown up some titles, but they're just subject matters to get you all thinking. Not for me to teach, not for me to mark, but My belief in the words of Socrates, I think should be of help to anyone involved in homeschooling also.

The type of education I wish I'd had

Imagine a place where learning is always interesting and full of surprises! Some good, some not, but if you want to  be a princess about life, then you really don't understand life frankly.

The following pages in this section are designed to be the kind of education I wished I'd had as a kid –  full of obscure & fascinating facts, fun activities, and learning more about the amazing sciences that makes them.

Instead I started 'helping' My dad when I was 4 years old and still progressed on becoming a Professor, proving that 'one size' really doesn't fit all, but having a hunger for knowledge is key.

In another role I served later in life as a Crown Officer, which I deliberately won't ever mention online, a General once wrote about me saying that I had 'an inquiring nature' (his words).

I jokingly asked him if that was his posh way of saying that I talked too much, and he replied "no, you have exceptional qualities which will take you far"

With years spent representing royalty in the UK, living & working in Ireland, France, Holland, Italy, Turkey, the Middle East, India, and  S E  Asia, (all the while learning even more) He wasn't wrong.

So dive in and explore a mirriad of subject matter, from tiny creatures  to mighty structures, like some of the ones I progressed to caring for, shown HERE,  so never give up thinking and inquiring.  👍

Be an inquisitive mind

I want you to become the most inquisitive person you can be!  I don't have all the answers, but hopefully you will one day.

Never be afraid to ask "why?", "how?", and "what if?". This page is your starting point to exploring the wonders of knowledge.

Just don't be assumptive.

Science is everything

Did you know that science is all around us. From the chemistry needed to bake bread to the physics needed to build the home you live in to to the biology necessary for understanding creepy 

Understanding science helps us feed ourselves, helps us protect ourselves and our heritage. Hopefully after exploring this page, and the rest of this site, I hope you and your parents/family/community will understand that science truly is everything, connecting us to the past, the present, and the future.
