My Dad

This is my Dad. Daniel Lea. My Dad was born in Peterborough but went to Roehampton University were he met my mum. For a living my dad works as a Deputy Head at Gearies Primary School. Over his 17 years of working there he has taught some of the students at West Hatch like: Yasmin Bhatti and her best mate Arjan (Year 10) and Rhys Mussington, (Year 7). I look forward to seeing them at West Hatch.

Outside of work my Dad has loads of cool hobbies like fishing. Once a year my Dad and his mates back in Peterborough ('The Jolly Boys') get together, and  for 3 days,  they fish in the middle of nowhere hunting for there biggest catch yet.  Here is one of my dads best fish.

My Dad is not always serious. He does have his nutty moments. For example him and some of his university flat mates, got together to have a laugh. We went to Jump Giants were somehow, my Dad ended up stuck in the foam pit. This video will show you how.

He also does crazy stunts.

Ever since my Dad was a kid, he has always been a rugby super fan. When he lived in Peterborough my Nan used to always love the rugby team: Saracens, and would always watch  the games. When I was first born I was even held by one of the players!
 My dad played a lot of rugby in Peterborough  and when he moved to London he started playing more football. But he started to play again at Bancroft Rugby Club where he began to love rugby again.

When I was born my Dad had to stop playing so that he could look after me. Now that me and my sister are older, he has started to play again and he is also now a coach for the club.

As well, as playing rugby, the family also watch it. and me and my Dad have been to see many games with our family.



That is basically everything you will need to know about my Dad. Apart from the fact we call him "Shrek". Below, is a short video of when my Dad won the 'Becta Teaching Award' in 2009
