Philosophy for Children: Educators Session at PRSC
See event details

A event held at PRSC on Wednesday 7th April. The event starts at 16:30.


For educators & families.

Philosophy, the “love of wisdom,” begins with wonder about the world. It is one of the oldest academic disciplines, but traditionally it has not been considered a subject for children. Yet young people ask philosophical questions and are curious about philosophical issues:

How do we know things? What is beauty? How are the mind and body connected?
Young people do not need to learn philosophy; it is something they do.

Philosophy For Children is a project developed in Seattle. It offers a series of workshops to introduce philosophy to young children from the age of three upwards. The School of Activism is hosting two taster sessions of Philosophy for Children, and you are invited to join a discussion on how this course could be rolled out as an ongoing programme in Bristol.

If you would like to get involved, help us, or are just curious, join this online planning session.

TICKETS to this session are free, but any donations will help us keep the School of Activism as accessible & low-cost as possible.

The School of Activism 2.0 is a two week programme of workshops, talks and activities brought to you by Peoples Republic of Stokes Croft over the Easter holidays. The workshops are intended to be empowering experiences equipping people with the tools to challenge the status quo, contest power structures and ultimately to change the world.

We learn by doing. We make our own future.
