A TEACHER OF AN OLD-FASHIONED SORT:

A TEACHER who swore, smoked and showed his students knife-fighting techniques has been allowed to remain in the classroom.

A disciplinary panel heard Joel Edmund Roache told year 9 students on a school camp that the best way to knife someone was to “stab them in the kidneys because then the person inhales and can’t exhale or scream”.

It’s hard to find a school with a good knife-fighting curriculum these days. The Insta-Wife and I have had to teach the insta-daughter at home. Not even Sylvan would help.
