Kids can go school any time. The World Cup is only once every four years. It’s sound reasoning by father Hugh Honey who has embraced the FIFA World Cup as a worldly learning experience for his four children.
With time zones for Australians out of sync with Qatar where matches started at 9pm Australian time and went through till 8am the following day, it’s been tough work watching four consecutive games each night.
Normally tasked with getting the kids ready for school from 7am onwards, Honey has instead used the World Cup to give his kids a series of in-depth geography lessons in lieu of attending school the following day.
“In all my years, I’ve never had a functioning use of algebra in my life whereas being able to recite the history and drama of player movements between clubs has proven to start many conversations over the years,” said Honey.
“If providing these pearls of wisdom come at the expense of going to school for three weeks, so be it.”
Calls from the school questioning the Honey childrens’ absence for two weeks have gone unanswered.
