A philosophy workshop for children about a Donkey and his Humans

Wonderful philosophy workshop today, around the story of The miller, his son and the donkey with Year-3 girls from a Merivale junior school.

We visualised the story as it was being read, and then shared what we had seen and understood. After answering a few questions we got to draw our favourite part of the story.

Some picked the “lesson” part, others the hilarious bit when the miller ended up carrying the donkey on his shoulders!

It’s been lovely reflecting on this fable and we are already looking forward to the next session!

PS: My calendar is full until the end of 2024 and part of 2025, but please get in touch to secure a spot for your school on terms 1 and/or 4 of 2025!
