PHILOSOPHY: Fiona’s class and Wilma’s class have been discussing metaphysics this week, and we have had some great thoughts around ‘nothing’ and ‘living things’. Aodán’s class read The Giving Tree, and thought about appropriate relationships between human kind and nature. Hazel’s class will be discussing something on Friday.
