A staff member took pity on me and gave him around half a dozen seedling kits to take home. It’s not the only thing he’s taken an interest in while stuck at home. And I’ve realised he’s also learning things at home that he wouldn’t have had the time to do otherwise and things that he wouldn’t learn at school. Practical things like cooking happen in after-school clubs which have few places and are oversubscribed.
