P4C at Rother Valley

On Monday some Reception children and some Y2 children went to Rother Valley with other schools in our family to take part in a Philosophy for Children event. 

The underlying principle of P4C is for children to support and strengthen thinking, reasoning, speaking and listening skills which all link to improved self esteem. 



One of the enquiries was about Tilly The Teapot who was one of the teachers pets, she loved to eat tea bags and loved to go for walks on her lead! We had lots of discussions about what makes something alive and asked lots of questions to find out more about Tilly. 




In P4C sessions we always show respect to each other by listening and looking at the speaker. If we want to answer a question we wait and hold out our hand to speak. 


The children had a brilliant morning and came up with lots of lovely ideas. Well done everyone!
