Welcome to our site. We are a group of children aged 7-11. We have started meeting  once a week to discuss philosophical problems.  The problems we have been discussing this term have been based on the story of philosopher's Island.

Philosopher's Island is a story which asks questions. These questions are designed to explore different aspects of philosophy. We have been discussing the problems posed by Philosopher's Island. Our thoughts are included on the site but we would love to hear your ideas.

If you would like to discuss these with us we can be contacted at pmpercival@portables2.ngfl.gov.uk
