Education.
My take on education is pretty straightforward: it’s not just about filling heads with facts; it’s about setting minds on fire! It’s about sparking curiosity, nurturing a lifelong love of learning, and empowering people to grow – not just in knowledge, but as well-rounded individuals.
I believe in education that goes beyond textbooks, that connects learning to the real world, and that fosters critical thinking and creativity. It’s about empowering people to find their own path, to ask “why?”, and to become active, engaged citizens who contribute to a better future. It’s about cultivating that balanced approach to life that’s central to everything lazyFlamingo.dev stands for.

Forest School
I’m a huge believer that some of the best learning happens outside, surrounded by nature. That’s why Forest School learning is so close to my heart. Imagine a classroom where the ceiling is the sky and the lessons involve mud, sticks, and genuine discovery! It’s a fantastic way to develop essential life skills like resilience, collaboration, risk assessment, and creativity, all while building a deep connection with the natural world. This isn’t just about fun; it’s about holistic development that nurtures both mind and body, laying the groundwork for a more balanced way of life.
STEM Learning
As a STEM Ambassador with STEM Learning, my mission is simple: to make science, technology, engineering, and maths exciting and accessible for young people! It’s awesome to get hands-on, bringing these subjects to life with real-world activities. We’re talking about everything from building basic robots to understanding environmental science through experiments. My goal is to show them that STEM isn’t just for textbooks; it’s about curiosity, problem-solving, and building the future – inspiring the next generation of innovators and critical thinkers.
