During the second half of the summer term, both classes from St Peter’s Year 6 will be experiencing lessons at Oaklands as a completion of their Philosophy for Children study.  Each fortnight, the pupils in Year 6 have a lesson with the Headteacher in which they explore and discussion different concepts and arguments.  For the final 3 lessons of this school year, under the guidance of RE teacher Miss Hogan in Oaklands’ chapel (pictured below), the children will undertake a programme of study in Philosophy and Ethics in which they explore the presence of God in our lives.

This is an excellent bridging opportunity between primary and secondary school, as well as challenging the pupils to put their reasoning and debating skills to the test at an extended level.
